Workout - 6/30

RDL: 4x8 @ 185
Bench: 1x4 @ 280, 6x6 @ 225
Pull-ups: 3x5 @ +0
Curls: 8,8,10 @ 65

Just horrendous. Drank copious amounts of booze last night. Felt like *******. Lower back was very achy and stiff for some reason, did 345x1 at the end of warm-up and decided against the whole exercise altogether. Kroc rows irritated it too. Everything else went decently.

This is like the worst 2 weeks of my lifting career. Back is STILL ****ed up. I should really stop pushing it until I'm more confident. I went up to 315 today just in case I could tough it out haha. So no progress + some regression + stupid amounts of calories. ****. Gonna go back to school next week and do that whole not eat + cut fat + get stronger thing I've been so good at in the past.

Workout - 7/2

FS: 185x5, 205x5
OHP: 177.5x4, 160x5, 145x6
Chins: 2x4 @ +45, 8 @ +0

FS is kinda cool. Screw abs.

Take it easy mate. The last thing you want is a really long lay off by ****ing it up good...

Truth. I think I've realized today that I'm ok with losing some strength to let this thing recover. Especially since I'm gonna need to RFL for 2 years anyway.

Or... or... stop obsessing about lifting at 181 and just get ridic strong.

I have conflicting goals. Deal with it, come at me, etc.

Given how much love handle i still have after losing 12 pounds, i think i could be a really jacked 145er.

Such a beat.

Haha, I think you found that new title you've been looking for? "SAW has conflicting goals -- come at me bro (LOG)"

lol do iiiit

actually don't, watching people get stronger is way more fun :tongue face?:

lol. part of me wants to keep it as an SS/HIIT log forever at this point...

Back still messed. Upper body day I guess.
