Worked on speed for deadlifts today so went pretty light. 405 the reps were probably about 1/2 second on the positive. 455 were about 3/4 to 1 sec on the positive so much slower. Not too bad overall. Body is fried from yesterdays chest session. Back is already sore and tired and its only been 45 min since end of workout. Ok everyone have a good week ahead and get shredded!!!

Had a good solid day today. Went up 10 lbs on close grip and got out 10 reps on first set and 8 on the 3rd set. Hit failure on all 3 sets. Stomach is getting much tighter. No longer using my hernia belt under shirt. Hoping to recover for tomorrows squat session. I have no idea what I am going to do we will see when I get under the bar. Ok everyone have a good weekend and get shredded and strong!!!

Another day another dismal leg workout. Just going through the motions with no energy on legs every week that goes by. I am putting so much effort into increasing my bench and deadlift I have nothing left when it comes to leg day. I need at least 2 days off before leg day to have enough energy to bust out a good session on squats. My shoulder is always tired and not feeling great the day after doing delts and close grip bench. It is what it is. Ok everyone have a nice weekend. Will be overeating tonight trying to recover from todays session. Just beat up right now.

Had a good day today. Got out 3 sets of 8 on incline bench with 285. I finally got a solid 6 hours of uninterupted sleep last night. First time in months. Most likely due to the fact we made homemade pizza yesterday. Looking forward to eating the rest of it today and tomorrow. Body is filling up with glycogen. Gained 5 lbs since yesterday. Tomorrow is deadlift day so hopefully am fully recovered for it. Will be lower weight and speed deadlifts. Looking at doing sets of 5 with 475. Hoping to keep the positive under 3/4 sec on each rep. Ok everyone have a kick ass week and get shredded and strong with me!!!

Had a good pull session today. Did some speed deadlifts today. Trying to keep the reps under 1 sec on the positive no matter how much weight is on the bar. Thats the plan for the next few weeks. Should give incredible strength and allow for much easier handling of heavier weights once I go above 600 lbs next month. Also did pretty good on bent over barbell rows. Got out 20 strict reps with 225 on the bar. Pretty happy about that considering it was done after deadlifts. Body is thrashed after finishing up just half hour ago. Looking forward to eating pizza and falling asleep on couch again this afternoon. Body sure loves this pizza I made. Lots of sodium. Have two days off and then we go in for 1 day to do arms and delts with the weekend off to recover. Ok everyone have a good finish up to the week ahead and get strong AF!!!
