Monday February 11th

Squat
95x5
135x5
185x3
205x2
235x5x5

Pretty easy, intensity day should go smooth this Friday. Felt sick and was shaking through most of this workout, hope I don't have an aneurysm.

Tuesday February 12th

Bench Press
195x5x5

Wednesday February 13th

Front Squat
225x3x3

I could take more 5 pounds jumps but I'm going to take it slow in the hopes of prolonging progression.

Thursday February 14

Seated Barbell Press
85x10

I am weak like little girl.

Friday February 15th

Squat
280x5

Kind of difficult, but I'm not even mad. If I get 40 pounds out of this round of the TM (295x5) I'll be more than happy.

Fingers crossed for 5 more pounds.

Sunday February 17th

Weighted Chin Up
67.5x3

Didn't see myself getting more sets. I haven't been keeping up with my grease the groove chins this week as my biceps are feeling a little fragile. So, I'm going to take a week off from any chin up work, rest up my arms, and then start over at 55# and continue LPing from there.

Squat
285x5

Saturday February 23rd

Bench Press
217.5x5

Felt like I had at least 6, bodes well for 225. I think once I get a 225x5 bench and a 315x5 squat I'm going to cut again. I look too sloppy without a shirt on. The good news on that front is that after a few days of not feeling that hungry I'm back down to 178, so I've gained no weight while setting PR's.

Sunday February 24th

Weighted Pull Up
35x5x3

Very Wide Grip Pull Ups
5x3

BW Rows
5x5
1x10
1xpast where it made sense

Mental burnout/boredom or whatever, I felt like changing my routine.

Monday February 25th

Squat
245x2x5

I had come down with a cold and felt dizzy and exhausted so I called it a day at two. This will either make intensity day go great or go terribly.

Tuesday February 26

Bench Press
200x5x5

Not too hard.

Wednesday February 27th

Front Squat
230x3x3

Thursday February 28th

Seated Barbell Press
90x10

Friday March 1st

Squat
290x2

Going to move to 5/3/1 for a few cycles.

Saturday March 2nd

Bench Press
220x6

Should have stopped at 5. Ass was about an inch off of the bench, not sure if I care or not. It felt so stable and strong. What I need is a fatter ass I guess. This means I'm good for ~240 ish, which is 1.33x bodyweight, so theres another relative strength PR right there. I have a very good feeling about hitting 300 by the end of the year.
