Now THAT is volume lol! Dude, don't try to get something that set in stone such as the 5x5 pullups. You might have been able to survive today, but next session could be totally different.

Oh, I only meant that most, if not all trainees don't know exactly what their rep maxes are, so it's better to err on the side of caution. Not so much a big 10% deduction lol. If Wendler's benching...

Ah, the good ol days. Always fun when you just start out! :D

On the rows, if you can hit 205 x 8 and 5 reps, yet do 185 for 3 sets of 8 (24 reps), it would seem as though you should be able to go...

Do you have a 385 lb bench like me?? :D You should be using 50% of your 1 RM.. In other words, speed bench means so fast that you can pump out three reps in the time it takes you to say, "one...

You know, your first meal of the day is said to set the tone for your insulin levels. This is a terrible idea. Whey plus oatmeal causes a big insulin spike. At the very least, I would add a...

Stick with the 185 for a few weeks. Never sacrifice speed for weight as that defeats the purpose.

Not a true 5 RM. Depends on you. I feel a lot better scaling back in weight from a 1 RM to doing a max set of 5 reps.. The 5 reps is tough, but definately not an all out set. That's the polar...
