Upper body stretches----

NOTES:
***Jefit programmed WO. 1 super set; approx 00:45 between each set in each SS, then 00:60 in between the start of the next SS. I think my goal today was initially 8 reps to failure, but the cable machine I used maxed at 150 and I didn't know where to start with super setting all these. It will take me a while to get it down. PR's on everything at some point, except for Arnold's and the shoulder presses. Weak on those recently...
The bench wasn't set back as much as the picture shows. I believe it was two notches back from upright. **

Jefit WO:

The plan was one SS, each set being:
Behind the head pull-ups, deads, chins, deads, Lawnmowers. That's how I did it, but Jefit screwed the log up and merged them, leaving one set all alone. The line set is my first dead set. I skipped the last set of deads because I was out of time. Pulls/chins were done dropping weight as I fatigued.

I will be skipping my workout today, and possibly next Saturday too. While I try to put on weight I probably shouldn't workout every muscle group twice a week. Besides, I am sore all over. Fortunately for me, my wife Is awesome and let me have her gift certificate for an hour massage today.

1scoop PumpX3 down, and later it's swimming and yard-work-cardio mixed with a beer-curl or two. Calories will stay low regardless and I will hit 220 in proteins. No Cheetos until I can figure out EXACTLY how many calories I can consume to bulk without getting fat again.

I sweat my butt off this morning. Bad calories or whatever, my PWO's carried me through my workout. I am pleased with my leg presses, but I definitely want to add a few hundred pounds to that. Rack-Pulls felt great for my first time trying them but I bet I could beat that by a lot with straps. I need to get some...

I probably won't post eats until tomorrow. My wife made a comment that I spend a lot of time planning, making, and tracking my food, so I'll add dinner cals in the AM. I prepare my lunches on Sunday, so every day at this time I will be at 1736 calories, 195p/115c/50f, and will destroy some carbs for dinner.

Yoga stretches---

NOTEs:
a) I didn't sprint today because I have major pain in my left hamstring where it meets the glute. The massage therapist drive her knee deep! She also said I don't stretch enough. :(
I thought I was stretching A LOT

b) One arm rows are recording plates only. I have no clue how much of the 45# bar is actually used.

c) After the final set I did 5 BTH pull-ups, 0 weight, right before yoga stretches.

d) It shows so many pull-up sets because I drop weight as I can't complete a full rep all the way through BW.

NOTEs:
a) I did various crunches between decline presses and deads. My plans were to do 6 sets each on lifts and 4 each on core, but I didn't.

I skipped dinner AND forgot my intranet BCAA's. I just didn't have it today. I will be repeating these exercises Saturday. I may switch to DB, but we'll see.

b) OH! I did do two sets of ladder push-ups. 4 levels each set, to failure. I didn't count but I got a great pump from it. Thanks wasme! Lemme know if you have more!

Notes:
a) Last set of tri extensions was in a flat bench. My decline was taken.

b) I had to drop from 10's to 5's on 2nd set six-ways. Can't keep up with drewsicle3210 on this one!

c) The leaning cable tri ext was done alternating my palm fwd and backward, and that's not actual weight. I *believe* 25= 40-50#

d) I went and did one more set on the overheads because they felt great. I know it looks like I was stopping at 10 on most of my sets, but I was hitting failure. I was shaky at 7-8 reps.

Notes:

a) My DOMs from legs Monday made me weak as heck on dead lifts. I figured the way things were going I'd hit PR's on deads today. Especially with 2 scoops SpeedX3.

b) Speaking of SpeedX3, HOLY FRICKIN' TWO SCOOPS!! Next time I need to bring a beach towel. I was DRENCHED!!
I should have done 2s on a leg day when I'm fresh. Lol

c) My calories have consistently been 34-3500 all week.
240-260p/190-220c/60-70f
I will probably deficit huge this weekend if I'm not too active. I look sodium-bloated, but I'm on the low end of my weight spectrum.

b) Today's WO went perfect, FTMP. I don't believe I hit any PR's, but my back took a beating yesterday too. I feel I hit failure and burned some calories!

Notes:

Overall, the workout felt great. Great squeeze and pump on my chest. I have no clue why I've been so weak though. I guess I have to re-build back to 300# on bench.

PumpX3 came through big time on the solo today. I felt energized the whole time and wished I had extra time to do one more round.

Good. Lord. I am hungry. Sitting at 2200 cals right now and will end the day between 32-3400. This weekend I was at 2500'ish and being very active in the yard.

c) No specials notes on today's workout. I felt strong on everything except dead lifts, and semi on grip switching weighted pull-ups. I shouldn't have done those few sets on Saturday. Oh well, I still hit failure.

b) Holy Frickin' leg pump. I swear they blew up 3"!

c) Since drewsicle3210 mentioned it the other day, I am also a little short-tempered. I don't know why... Hours of sleep, PR XT, carbs to low?? I dunno. It may also be that I'm just sick and tired of riding in a vehicle with another man's bad habits.

Notes

I used the last full scoop for this workout yesterday. There looks to be 1/5-1/4 scoop left, so I'll consume that tomorrow on my off/yard day.

I will try and get reviews for both of these before the end of the weekend. Thanks for letting me log SpeedX3, it truly is the best PWO I've tried thus far!
