Well today was a bitch of a day. Class went allllll day. 8:30-5 so that pretty much sucked the life out of me. Everythign felt very heavy.
Squats
bar x 6 (warmup)
135lbs x5 (warmup)
175lbs x2 (weight acclimation)
195lbs x1 (weight acclimation)
215lbs 3x5 (work sets)
Went up again even though my groin was hurting. Was heavy as hell but then again these always seem heavy. Haha. Nothing alot of grunting can't fix. Really happy about being really close to 225lbs!
Standing Military Press
75lbs x 5 (warmup)
95lbs x 3 (warmup)
120lbs 2x5, 1x3
Seems as though I couldn't do er today. Even the first rep felt heavy. Looking for suggestions on another accessory that I can add in to help this. Standing flys maybe?
Deads
135lbs x 5 (warmup)
210lbs x 3 (warmup)
245lbs x 1 (weight acclimation)
125kg x5
Squats seems to burn up my back and military press seems to strain it a little more cause I'm givin er so hard and I think these suffered this time because of it. Also, I tried doing my first rep double overhand and my grip started slipping. I tried reajusting mid pull but that really F*ed my back. I finished it out but I'm gonna be sore tomorrow.
Pull ups
BW+ 15lbs
I found out how to stop my swaying problem. Crossing my legs seems to keep them more still. I may have to stop at +20lbs and work up till I can do 7-8 reps then add more weight cause I think the form is starting to suffer on the last couple reps.
Standing Calf Raises
90lbs x 8 (warmup)
180lbs x 6 (warmup)
275lbs 3x10
Diet
7:30am - weightgainer
10:00am - noodles and tuna
12:00pm - weightgainer
2:00 - noodles and tuna
4:15 - 2 ephidrine and energy drink
5:00 - workout
PWO - weightgainer
PPWO - chunky soup and an orange
I think I'm going out drinkin tonight so the diet will suffer but had a pretty solid eating day so far already.
Thoughts,
Well, this SS program is definately making me strong and a bigger slowly but I think I'm coming to plateau on a few things. I need some suggestions on how to keep military press going and and pull ups too.
