What's up with "implementing a uniform eating routine?" Thought it was supposed to be random
Greg Everett 2 | 2008-02-17
Who said it was supposed to be random? More importantly, uniform is more in reference to consistency in quality and basic content than literal food items.

Do you anchor the feet when doing dumbbell sit-ups?
Greg Everett 4 | 2008-02-18
Yes, anchor your feet or you'll be limited in how much weight you can use.

back from my few day CA hiatus

wanted to do grace, so used as "warmup" (85#) - 3.06

fs - 130#
cln pull - up to 225#
pp - 125, 125, 130, 135x, 135 (5# pr)
pu - 8,6,5
su - 20# dbs (didn't anchor feet, so... it was lighter than rx)

Got to break in the new (used) squat rack
FS- 105kg *2*5 (Not sure of FS max I was thinking 125 but these were fairly hard I may be a bit optimistic
C Pull 90,100, 105*2
pp 85(pr),85,85, 90(pr), 90 - Not having to clean the weight definitely helped
PU 12 *3
SU 10 kg/hand *8*3

FS-195#x2x5 up ten pounds from last week
C Pull: 245#, probably did too much weight here but the pull felt pretty good but its way over my 210 clean Max
Push Press: 185,185,205PR,225 failed, 215 failed but will make next time, just didn't get my head under the bar.
Pullups, 13,11,9
Ran out of time and didn't do abs.

FS: 155x2x5 -- would have been easier if I hadn't missed the FS workout last week.

Clean pull: 135x2 (assume that was supposed to be 100% of my max clean)

Push press: 110, 112, 115, 117, 120 and could have gone heavier.

Pullups: 8, 5, 4

DB situps: 25# x8x3
