These are mostly not quite my maxes. I didn't feel the need to push right to the limit as I am in the deload, but I pushed hard enough to figure out my 5RMs and 8RMs.

Next week though...

I'm beyond swamped with all the final reports, presentations, and final exams this week and last week.
I couldn't make it to the gym. It's also insanely busy at work with the bidding season going full steam.

Not sure I will compete at the pronvincials. At this point, I'm not sure I can even hit the numbers I qualified with; which would be pointless. I will finish this strength cycle nonetheless.

I'm debating running another strength meso or a peaking one. Either way, I'll run a mock meet and move into a hypertrophy cycle. I will use the powerlifting hypertrophy templates.

Great workout, everything moved nicely. Going to feel those abs tomorrow.

Those side delts feel 10x better than the regular ones. I hope it helps fix my imbalance; left delt is noticeably bigger than the right one.

5 stars workout. Love the atmosphere when the OH door's open, it smells like summer in there, it's packed with people working their asses off, and the music is blasting. An elite powerlifter came and told me my deadlift technique improved a lot since last year.

Got my grades too, 3.8 GPA. Not bad for working full-time and taking full course load.

Filled the backlog at work too with a few schools; we're good for a few months.

Today was a good day.

Bought some weights and set up in my garage. I have a olympic barbell (2" diam) with 2x 55s and 2x 25s, hence the repetitiveness in weights used today.
I also have a cheap 1" diam barbell with 200 lbs of weight. I have an ez curl and DBs for these 1" weights too.
There's a bench, but no squat stands yet.

Got the hypertrophy templates too, I'll start this program 5x a week on Monday.

I'm BACK! Started the diet today and the hypertrophy templates. Running the mass diet, but I'll use the base tab for a while until it evens out.

Got my squat stands c/w clips and extra 2" weights on Saturday. Super motivated right now.

Selfies to come soon to display my set-up.

Started doing my lunges stationary instead of walking. The template says walking lunges, but they don't feel as good to me. Also, stationary takes less room, and this is how Larry taught me to do them when I was boxing.
