310 x 5 actually puts me a bit better than anything I did last week + I'm sick so I'll take it. I decided today was a good day for a jack shit workout since I'm not feeling so hot and both my buddies bailed on me.

Well I thought I could do better on bench but the heat and this cold (yes I said that right... it's almost 30C here and I have a cold. Go figure.) Sometimes I feel like my bench will never increase. Arg.

I'm still trying to be careful with dips. It really stretches my shoulder where it was injured before. I am trying to get as much ROM as possible without stretching too much.

Well I was supposed to do 195kg and 6 reps would have tied last week's performance... but the way we had to mix and match kg/lb plates it worked out to about 196kg and I got 6 reps so I guess that is a slight increase from last week.

I felt my form slipped a bit on my last rep but I don't think it was enough to be damaging. I have to be careful with that though cause it doesn't take much to set a guy back a long ways.

Had to condense workouts since I'm heading off to a buddy's wedding tomorrow. Could have used another day's rest for squats but oh well. Squats and MP were both a little bit better than last week.

Was at a wedding all weekend in the wedding party... didn't eat or sleep right and of course drank too much. Good thing week 3 is postponed cause today felt lethargic at best.

I brought the old lady to the gym today. She's a pretty good bencher. 55lb x 3 no problem.

Well seemed like not that great of a week. Benched 245lb which should be solid and it seemed shaky and shitty. Squats felt like they were lacking power. Missed 195lb on my MP and I really thought I should have it. Worked up to 190kg on deads which felt ok but I had a bit of back pain which has been buggin me all week. It's not the typical lower back strain though so I'm at a loss.

Hopefully next week is better?

Well my bench numbers were less than great. They were matching efforts that I made 4-5 months ago. I'm in a downward spiral at the moment with bench and I don't know why!

By the numbers I should be able to rep 207.5kg ... but I just couldn't today. I'll take it as a small win as it's a 1.5kg increase on my max.
