April 17,
Intimidate: Dose 47
Erase Pro: Dose 39
PWO: 1/4# beef, 2 eggs, 1/2 can black beans, 2 scoops CRAZE, 10 pills Hemavol, 25mg Ephedrine Sulphate, black coffee.
No warmup today due to a very tight schedule at work...
SQUATS: 5x5 210#. These felt even better than last week. Good control, absolutely no pain, and all reps breaking parallel. Did notice that it took me a little longer to get the hips below the knees. Prolly because I did not get my PWO cardio in so my muscles were cold. Will move up to 215 on Thurs!
OVERHEAD PRESS: 4/4/4/4/5 @135# 3@ 140 (PR). Ok, can finally graduate from 135#. This was definitely a challenge, but all my reps were controlled, no cheats, and my form looked very solid. Will start at 140# next week. My shoulders have really responded nicely to the sups and the routine. My delts, traps, and tris are looking good. Love this exercise...wonder why I never see people doing this one at my gym??
DEADLIFTS: 1x5 @ 225, 1x5 @335 (PR). Man, I hope I'm doing these right! Never really did deads until this cycle. Everything I know is from reading "Starting Strength", but I've never had anyone physically walk me through them. All other exercises it seems like I can study my form as I do them and make mental notes of what needs to be corrected. With deads, it's like my brain compresses and has only one thought: "LIIIIFT!!!". When I am done, it's like I woke from a dream and can't remember what happened. The good news is I haven't hurt myself...yet. New PR!!
Finished the morning with 3x10 chin-ups. 3x20 Dips. Had to leave after that for a busy day at work...
The body feels awesome. Totally pain free and energized. Looking forward to the next workout on Thurs.
