Like I've mentioned before, I don't put up my entire meal plan for they day. Only what I've eaten up to that point. I believe I had another 2 meals after the supper on that last day. I've been putting on weight so I really don't think eating is a problem.

Sunday April 6th/2008

Well on the way to pick up my gym partner this morning some lady pulled out in front of me and I couldn't stop. We were both OK but it still pissed me off. Her cause is F*ed and mine is slightly messed up. I've already had trouble with my insurance agency with them blaming a different accident on me in Dec (our cars didn't even touch!) but thats another story... Just pissed me off. Had to rant.

Fairly solid day at the gym otherwise.


Squats (heavy)
- bar x 5
- 135lbs x 5
- 165lbs x 3
- 185lbs x 2
- 205lbs x 1
- 225lbs 3x5 (old PR)

Well I'm back up to where I was before. Now to take it up and beyond!

Bench
- bar x 6
-135lbs x 4
-165lbs x 3
-175lbs x 1
-185bs 5x5

Was tougher this time but I still finished. I'm thinking this is comparable to where I was at with bench before. My best 3x5 was 200lbs so I'm think I'm in a similar range but hard to compare directly.


P.Rows
-bar x 5
-30kg x 4
-40kg x 3
-50kg x 2
-60kg x 1
-70kg 1x5,2x4

My last rep of the last two sets was not all the way to my chest. I think we're going to switch up the rep scheme on one of the days and go a little higher reps with lighter weight. Maybe switch one day to a dumbell variaton. Not exactly sure yet.

DB Military Press (standing)

-37.5lbs 4x8

Always tough after a hard bench day but I got it done.

Hanging Leg Raises

bw x10,9,8

Still can't master these yet. They're comin along though...slowly.

Side Bends
60lbs x 6
90lbs 3x10

This is always tough cause its 20 reps total each set (both sides) so I get huffin pretty good.

Diet

Diet was not great today...family came up and of course I've been slackin all weekend. Oh well.

Too much time between breaky and workout but thats what happens when you have to wait for the police to show up.

9:30am- eggs, pancakes, bacon, hash browns...yum

11:00 - crash into crazy driver lady...F*!

12:00 - Workout

1:30 - PWO - 2 scoops gainer

2:30 - PPWO - Burger and pineapple

Don't know what I'll have for the rest of the day yet but I am going to eat at least 3 more times.


Thougths

Squats are back to my old PR so I'm real happy about that. Bench is in the same region but its hard to tell since I'm workin a different rep scheme. Bench is probably going to be switchin to a 3x3 within the next week or two and I'll continue on up until I'm around max with that then I'll max test. Then reset to 5x5 is the plan.

Going to start going with 5lb jumps on squats now and see how long I can take it. Probably switch to a 3x3 with that when I start failing on 3x5.

Good job getting back to PR level bro. Getting into PR territory is always a good time.

Keep up the good work,
Jeff
