Goal=150(Sets of 5)
Current=95(Sets of 10)
Today I did biceps and triceps.
Currently working on 40lbs 21s. I started with 30lbs but have moved up the weight this past week! :)
There was really nothing that special that I did today other than my tricep routine. The one you put behind your head and push up? Anyways, I normally do 1x10 with 30lbs, 1x10 with 35lbs and 1x10 with 40lbs but today I moved it all up 5 lbs. So now I'm at 45lbs max for 10!
I finally did it! I benched 135lbs!!!!! :) :) :)
It was my goal the entire month and I got it twice today YAY!
Anyways, worked chest today. Same ol' same ol' other than finally getting my mark!
Bicep/Tricep day!
Finally learned how to do Hammer Curls correctly. Brain crushers, alot easier this time around. Might bump it up another 5 pounds sometime next week. Started preacher curls today along with 21s and Hammer Curls!
I feel great!

What excercise do you want to know about?
Biceps?
Well, mostly everything I do(Without dumbells) is 40lbs. I might move up to 50lbs next week depending on how I feel.
Dumbells, for Hammer Curls, are normally 20lbs each hand. Maybe 25 sometimes if I feel up to it.
Triceps, brain crushers, I do 1x10 with 35lbs, 1x10 40lbs and 1x10 45lbs. Relatively easy this time around and I only moved up the weight last week.
Edit: About the 21s. Can you explain why you'd go against them? Thanks! :)
Gained 4 more pounds! And slowly working on another inch for my biceps! I love my life right now. :D
Did back/shoulders today. Fun stuff.....I moved up my shrugs by another 5 pounds! Glad to keep that up. :)
About to drink my home made shake. YUM YUM!
Alright, back! I might as well start this since I love looking back at the things I did and how much I've improved.
Yesterday, since I started a job, I did an extreme workout(Probably wasn't a good idea but I felt I needed to)
I did back, shoulders and legs. For back, I finally started deadlifts!
3x5(Last set was 4, couldn't get the 5th)
First 2 sets were with 205 for 5, last was 225 for 4. Felt pretty good for my first ever time doing them.
I didn't really have time to do the things I wanted to do, I ended up missing shrugs. Anyways, for shoulders I did Shoulder Press, 5x10(Last set with 8). First set, 45lbs bar. Then the last 4 were 75lbs.
I also did lateral raises, 5x10. First 3 with 15lbs(Each arm), last 2 with 20lbs.
Legs, squats and calve raises(I normally do alot more on every day, this was just a rush day since I missed 4 days at the gym). With squats, I REALLY surprised myself. I was only squating 70lbs-85lbs for 10 and barely getting it, but last night I was getting sets of 5 with 135lbs. First 2 sets with 75lbs(For 10 reps), last 3 with 135(For 5 reps).
I'm currently 169.5lbs(5 days ago). My goal is 180 by Christmas, hopefully I'll get it!
I'll try to update this everytime I get home from the gym, please comment and help me out! Thanks!

Overall
I loved the workout. I joined this new gym around my area and finally got off the YMCA 30 mins away from me. It's called "Petley's Gym" and all "the boys" go to it, the big guys from the town. Anyways, tonight it was just me. It was very late, right after work. The woman working there gave me a deal, I can go there anytime after I work. She's amazingly nice.
The only thing I didn't like about the workout was the long walk home in the rain at 12:30 a.m. I shouldn't be working out this late but I have to, no other choice. I loved it though, I could blast all the music I wanted with nobody but me there. Good workout. I can now update my max deadlift. :)
Day off tomorrow, or I might just go down and do some ab/forearm/wrist work after work if I'm up for it. Thanks for reading!

Overall
Loved this workout. Went with Mike and ended up running into the owner of the gym. Ernie seems like an awesome guy. Really serious, never smiles. Seems like an awesome guy though, I'll enjoy going back to his gym. He really knows his stuff. I went to the gym at 9 and ended up going home at 11:30 because me, him and Mike talked about working out for a good 2 hours. It was awesome.

Forgot the overall on shoulder day yesterday:
Overall:
Felt AWESOME. I went with Mike again right after school. He ended up doing shoulders too, so it worked out great.
Ever get that feeling of joy when you pill on plates? I got it the first time yesterday with shrugs. I know it isn't alot of weight, but popping on plates like toys is one of the best feelings ever. Just knowing you can do it feels amazing.
I also did something I never thought I could do. Mike was walking around watching me do shrugs with 275lbs and said hey, why don't you try a deadlift with that?(He knows I did 255lbs twice) So I said hey, why not? I had my belt on and the straps ready to go. I lifted the 275lbs and deadlifted it twice, could've got three but Mike stopped me because I normally do DLs/Back on Fridays.
So I'll be trying either 295 or 315 for max this Friday. Wish me luck!

It looked HILARIOUS, but he did a good job using them for the first time. Neil, a bodybuilder, ended up coming in too. I haven't met him before but my friend has, so I felt lucky today! I'll be going down again tonight with Mike to do some biceps so I'll get back to you again.

Overall:
Pretty good. Recently I ****ed up my elbow/lower bicep muscle by having the wrong squat form. If that's really the reason... I had a pounding pain in my left arm everytime I did my heavy squat sets so I had to take a couple days off from the gym. Even though I didn't, I completely forget what I did for sets. All I remember is doing only flat bench, 4 sets of 5 because the last set my left elbow finally gave out and I had to stop and leave. I'm seeing a doctor about it very soon and will be getting a massage with a couple gym buddies in the next week or so. I'll remember to mention my left arm to the person doing the massages.
Supplements:
No interest in protein whatsoever after my arm went. Same thing for creatine and NO Xplode + Taurine as I normally take.

Alright, back! I might as well start this since I love looking back at the things I did and how much I've improved.
Yesterday, since I started a job, I did an extreme workout(Probably wasn't a good idea but I felt I needed to)
I did back, shoulders and legs. For back, I finally started deadlifts!
3x5(Last set was 4, couldn't get the 5th)
First 2 sets were with 205 for 5, last was 225 for 4. Felt pretty good for my first ever time doing them.
I didn't really have time to do the things I wanted to do, I ended up missing shrugs. Anyways, for shoulders I did Shoulder Press, 5x10(Last set with 8). First set, 45lbs bar. Then the last 4 were 75lbs.
I also did lateral raises, 5x10. First 3 with 15lbs(Each arm), last 2 with 20lbs.
Legs, squats and calve raises(I normally do alot more on every day, this was just a rush day since I missed 4 days at the gym). With squats, I REALLY surprised myself. I was only squating 70lbs-85lbs for 10 and barely getting it, but last night I was getting sets of 5 with 135lbs. First 2 sets with 75lbs(For 10 reps), last 3 with 135(For 5 reps).
I'm currently 169.5lbs(5 days ago). My goal is 180 by Christmas, hopefully I'll get it!
I'll try to update this everytime I get home from the gym, please comment and help me out! Thanks!
What was with the 3 month layoff from posting? Did you stop working out? I started looking through your journal because in your signature you have stats that are fairly close to mine. I was interested to see what kind of progress someone around my level was making. I'll continue to read from this post I quoted and see how your doing.

I completely forgot about this site for 3 months. I had access to the forum but forgot about the journal. I also posted something on here a week or so before I left for 3 months and the person who kept giving advice acted like a prick. So I said **** it, I won't bother with the site anymore. Then came back after I finally found out what to do and how to do it.
Thanks.

Same as previous bicep day.
Gym was closed today. My lats are really sore this time around. I don't know why, but I couldn't even bench as much as I thought I could because I couldn't even bend my upper back. Oh well.
Took 1 29g protein shake, 3 TB-2 pills throughout the day and 5g of creatine when I woke up.
Starting to see some gains.
