Weight: 181.5lbs Up 2lbs according to last time. I've been eating quite a bit more this week. I guess it showed. I'm cool with that.

Deads
-60kg x 5
-90kg x 3
-110kg x 1
-130kg x 1
-150kg 2x1
-155kg 2x1 (Old PR)

Well this went very well considering my max is 155kg! I know now that I can lift more. I just have to do it. Nice.

Front Low Box Squats
bar x 5
95lbs x 5
115lbs x 5
135lbs 2x5

Never have done box squats before so I thought I'd give me a whirl. I let the weight off onto the box (but maintained my arch) and that makes it quite a bit harder. Felt great.

Standing BB Military Press
- bar x 5
- 85lbs x 3
- 105lbs x 2
- 125lbs x 1
- 135lbs x1,x1,x2,x1

Felt very strong today. I decided not to go for my old PR and I think it was a good choice. Squeezed out 2 reps somehow on the 3rd set and was still able to get one on the 4th set. Awesome.

Hanging Leg Raises
bw x 8,8,7

Working back to a 3x8. I'm doing them properly now. Lowering my legs controllable to a rest a the bottom then up.

Pallof Press/Twist
40lbs x5
45lbs 2x5

Thougths

Pretty solid workout today. I felt that my eating was pretty good. I think I'm almost back up to par where I'll start posting my diet again. Got my appliances back in so that helps. Soon my new kitchen will be entirely complete! Holy cow has it taken me alot longer then planned...

Going camping this weekend and leaving early 2morrow so only 2 days of workout this week. I want to start my 4 day/week new program soon but I want to get my kitchen all done first. (need the time to work at nights)
