Tuesday:

Olympic Squats: 5x5 (reduced 15-20%) 160
Standing Military Press: 5x5 110
Deadlifts: 5x5 260
RG Pulldowns: 5x5 185
Accessory (incline curls and abs) 2x10

Today's workout was pretty good. I went early this morning and didn't get quite as much sleep as I wanted to (only 5 hrs) but nonetheless I made the numbers.

My Hip flexors were a bit tight during the first few warmup sets of A2G but once I got into the 5x5 it wasn't too bad.

Standing OHP was great. In the past 115lbs has been my peak because my lower back wants to push through my abs at that weight or heavier, but I felt pretty strong at 110 and should be able to hopefully make it to 155 (target weight during intensity phase) without any lower back limitations.

Deadlifts were pretty good. I only did 4x5 though, I was running out of time before class and I felt like I was gonna barf after busting through 3 sets with 30sec rest between sets. I'm feeling pretty strong with deads, and I included the static hold that Eric suggested. I basically stood there with the bar after my last rep until my fingers uncurled.

RG Pulldowns felt strong, I blew through these sets like jackshit. Nuff said.

Incline curls were nothing special, I couldn't quite jump to the next DB so I pushed out one set at the new weight and one set at the old weight. I'm not worried about progression on these (although I'm still gonna try to progress every week), they're just the accessory.

I haven't been keeping a detailed log about my bodyweight like I used to. For right now I'm focusing on adding lbs to the bar instead of to my frame. I'm weighing in roughly around 180lbs +/-
