Well my back is pretty damn tight from deads still.... It has never quite felt right since I strained it a couple months ago. I hope I don't have some serious problems.

Back on the bulking train. Hoping to be 215-220lb by xmas. We shall see if that's a reasonable goal.

This cycle is going to be tough. My buddy is leaving for Thailand next month so he wanted to finish this next cycle... which means we didn't have time to deload. So we'll see how that goes.

Mondays are always lack luster. Weekend nutrition and sleep is the largest contributing factor here I'm sure.

I'm trying to back down my 5x10s this week to do a partial deload since this cycle had no break between last cycle week 3 and the start of this cycle. Trying to save myself for week 3.

My bodyweight took a 3lb jump in 2 days... hopefully I'm just retaining water but I don't know?
