I was a little tight today. Took some time to warm up. Ended up having to borrow some wrist straps for dead lifts. Got to buy a pair. Felt stronger on squats.
Squat: 135 x 10, 155 x 10, 185 x 10, 225 x 10, 275 x 10
Dead Lifts: 135 x 10, 185 x 10, 225 x 10, 275 x 10, 305 x 5
Felt stronger. I have to remember to breathe. I am getting small red dots around my eyes from ruptured blood vessels. Did feel stronger. I finally feel like I am making some real progress in chest. As always it helps to get a spot.
Flat Bench: 135x 10(2), 155 x 10, 185 x 10, 205 x 10, 225 x 8(3)
Chest Dips: 4 x 21

Tricep Press with Rope: 100 x 10, 120 x 10, 130 x 10
My back felt ok. But still I think from now on I will warm up more than I have been. Didn't feel good about my last two squat sets. Didn't get low enough. More comfortable with hack squats now. Felt strong doing stiff legs with dumbells.
Squats: 135 x 10, 155 x 10, 185 x 10, 225 x 10, 245 x 10, 275 x 10, 290 x 9(2)
Hack Squats: 4 plates x 10, 6 plates x 10(2)

Stiff Legs with dumbells: 85 x 10, 95 x 10, 105 x 10
Wasn't happy with last nights workout. Not really focused and felt weak. When doing flat bench next time I am going to make more of a jump. I am going to skip the the 155 and 195 lb weight. So it would be 135(2), 185(2), then 225.
Someone last night mentioned they take primatene before training. It increases their strength. I think it has ephedra. Not sure. Do you know if this is legal and still qualify for drug free shows? Thoughts?
