I told myself I wouldnt do this. Lifting logs are dumb, I said. Online lifting logs are even worse. (No offense) For someone like me who is, at best, a recreational lifter, they are completely pointless and a waste of time. Recent events have led me to reevaluate that opinion. Long story short Ive been pissed at my lack of gains recently and cant remember what the fuck ive been doin from week to week in detail enough to accurately measure progress, or more specifically lack thereof. That being said I welcome any and all participation in this log, good, bad or otherwise. Alright then lets get this trainwreck underway!
Stats n' Shit
Age: 28
Height : 5'9"
Weight: 165-170 lbs
Current Maxes (Best of my Knowledge)
Bench: 210lbs
Squat: 190lbs ATG (Yes I am quite ashamed)
Dead: 250lbs (Yes I am even more ashamed)
Current Goals
Bench: 225
Squat: 240
Deadlift: 300
Interesting Info About Me
You will never meet a more apathetic, unenergetic, unmotivated **** in your entire life. Ive had a lack of energy pretty much my entire life, and I do believe it influences the way I approach life in more ways than I care to admit. Im pretty sure its psychological and not physical and I only bring it up b/c I feel that it does affect my lifting, sometimes to the point I cant complete a workout. Allright enough Dr. Phil bullshit lets get to the really embarrassing parts.

Bench
135x10 (warmup)
155x5
165x5
175x5
185x5
195x3
Notes: Damn shoulders always give me problems when I bench. I keep my shoulderblades together and keep my back tight as I can but on heavy sets they feel uncomfortable. OHP gives me no problems though, its weird.
Incline Bench
115x8
135x6
145x6
Notes: Shoulders felt fine on this, most likely due to the bitch weight.
Standing Dumbbell Curls
Included here for completeness sake.
Skull Crushers
65x6
65x8
65x8
Notes: Done with an EZ-Curl bar.Used wrist wraps. More weight than I normally use(not much), they were heavy, but still felt under control.
Overall Notes:
Did everything I set out to do. Thought about doing some heavy double/singles(10-15lbs more) on Bench but decided not to risk my shoulder too much. Other than that felt pretty good and was surprised I did SC's with that much weight as easily as I did. Well I didnt drop the bar on my head anyway. Ive been staring Bill Starr in the face for a few months now but havent had the balls to actually give it a try. Ill finish this week out and keep it in mind.
