I didn't take any pre measurements but I probably still could as I'm only up 1lb so far. ha The hypertrophy routine definitely has a different feel and is a lot faster paced but I'm getting used to it now and it's starting to feel pretty good. We'll see if I can actually make any size gains now.

You'll also find this forum is on it's death bed. lol I pretty much just use it for keeping a log.

The gym was *packed* today. Had to forgo declines for flat bench. No partner either so I had to try and snipe a random for a spot which is always hit or miss.

I stayed fairly strict with my meal plan this weekend, had lots of sleep, and even had a greasy burger for a cheat meal and somehow I lost 2lb? Hopefully it's just a blip.

My strength today felt good. I'm getting used to the higher volume work and lower rest times I think. Hopefully I can get my diet straightened out and actually gain a bit of weight. lol

I was really hoping my back wouldn't slow me down ... looks like I was wrong. Hopefully I an work through this relatively quickly. I was just starting to feel like I was getting into this program.

Back is still fawked but I still managed a solid upper day. Made a solid increase on my decline performance since last time.

Not sure what I'm going to do tomorrow... Not sure if I should try and do what I can or just let it rest.

Finally popped up a bit in weight. The DB lifts have been feeling good lately too.

I somehow did pec flys instead of curls today. oops

I think I'll be sitting out lower day tomorrow ... my back needs rest unfortunately. I'm pissed because stuff just seemed to be coming together.
