Tues March 25/2008

Well I weighed in at 165lbs...thats down 4lbs or so from last week...ouch. I think its mostly due to the being sick and having an excess coming out of me...thats as far as I'm going to go with that.

I didn't do the regular tuesday deadlift day since I missed squats and bench last thursday and sunday, I felt that they needed more attention then deads.

Also, I'm still sick. I'm better now then last week. Much better...but still coughing and head cold type deal. So the coughing is not allowing me to sleep very well...and the sickness is generally making me feel lethargic.

Squats (heavy)
- bar x 5
- 135lbs x 5
- 165lbs x 3
- 185lbs x 2
- 205lbs 3x5

I got it done. It was a struggle to get my energy levels up today though.


Bench
- bar x 8
-115lbs x 5
-135lbs x 3
-155lbs x 2
-165bs 5x5

Well my pec healed up completely so this didn't seem too bad. Also, I changed up my grip. Now I'm trying to go a bit narrower and I'm using ring finger on the ring.

Deads
60kg x 5
80kg x 3
100kg x 5
120kg x 1

Well I didn't want to sacrifice deads completely but squats had my quads trembling already so I didn't push it too hard. Just did a light set to keep it in the routine basically.


Pull-Ups

bw+15lbs 3x5

Got this done thank god. Maybe I can finally start moving up again with these.

Dips

bw + 45lbs x 7
bw + 35lbs 2x10

Well it seems 45lbs was too much. Don't know if its due to the sickness, or having heavy bench every day with dips now. This was probably more affected by the narrow grip bench.


Hanging Leg Raises

bw x 10,8,7

These are always hard.

Side Bends
55lbs x 5
70lbs 3x10

Guess I'll keep doing these since the cable machines here are ridiculous to get onto for anything of that nature.

Diet

9:30 - 1.5 scoops whey and 1 cup oats

10:30 - workout

12:30 - PWO - 2 scoops gainer

1:00 - PPWO - chicken wrap

3:00 - tuna and spinach salad with almonds

5:00 - gotta make somethin up right now...gainer perhaps... I'm lazy

Thougths


Well considering my illness I guess this workout went alright. I really want to get better now though! Being so lazy and wanting to nap all the time is really getting old. Well anyways, hopefully I can stay in more of a routine now.
