Today was super rough at first, 345 felt like a ton. I then added a box and again 275 felt like it was 405, but I keep working up and after my 315x5, which felt awesome, I threw 365 on there.

Hoping to get my squats moving back up in the right direction.

This week was rough, Traveled to Dallas, TX on Tuesday for work. Had to be up at 4 am to catch my flight, so I didn't get my lower session in. Was out drinking until 12:30 last night then got up at 3:45 to catch my flight back.

Still managed to fit in a decent session. I'm SO excited to sleep tonight.

[Off Road]

Traveling can be a huge pain in the ass and messes with your training. Get some sleep man.

[fooz]

hahah your the man... No way in hell I'd wake up at 3:45 after a night of drinking.... and then hit the gym on top of it? solid.

I hear you, it seems like recently my training schedule has been way out of whack, but as long as I'm consistent I think I can maintain properly.

Ha, thanks bro! I tell you, I could barely see straight when I got up in the morning. I just love this shit so much though that I forced my self to go.

I really went balls to the wall today and it turned out better than I expected. 405 felt like a ton, 435 was super slow and I didn't think 455 was possible, but I put it on and pulled away. 365x8 was brutal and my thumbs were screaming. Everything was done with a reset at the bottom, I'm not into the touch and go.

No PRs recently, but still some strong workouts.

[fooz]

dude your insane... 455x1 then 365x8? fuck outta here. great work!

[Off Road]

Very nice pulls. Picked a lift and smashed it...good stuff.

Thanks, Chevy. It took me so long to finally press them, I've failed SO many times and each time I failed I wanted to scream and punch the first douche bag I saw...but I didn't.

Now It's time to get them for 5

I broke a dumbbell once on incline pressing because I threw it down after I failed on a set way before I thought I would. I felt like a douchebag, but damn was I pissed.

[Off Road]

Lots of good work in there Cards.

[Bako Lifter]

Next up, 100s. Pretty soon your gym will run out of dumbells to support your strength gains.
