Shoulder Press - WU, 5X5 135
Deadlifts - WU, 4X5 300
Lat Pulls - 5X5 165, 180, 165, 150, 150

Deadlifts were heavy...PR. That's the most weight I've ever done period...and it was for my 5X5. The fourth set nearly killed me. The belt puts a lot more strain on my lower abdomen, which means that I'm more apt to get the H word...I felt super slight tear, so I took about 4 minutes before my last set....and I went to lift, and couldn't even move it off the floor. I think I just tightened up a LOT during my little break there. One of the guys that I see in the gym a lot stopped me and told me that my form sucked on lat pulls...which it did. And I knew it did, but I guess I needed to hear it. He said, "Do you want big lats? If you do, then take some weight off and use good fucking form." It was the first time I've ever talked to him and that's all he said to me. I'm glad he did though...I got a little too concerned with increasing weights. Seems like a nice guy.

Cut today's workout short...deadlifts killed me, I didn't have much energy, and couldn't get motivated.
