Exactly, Sean. And the smith machine was purple....3 guesses what gym it was...

7/3/17
Squat 335x3x3, @8.5,9,8.75
Low Box Squat 315x3x3, @8-9
Bench 225x5@8, 235x5@8.75, 245x5@9

The 245x5 bench surprised me. You could call this a recent PR, I supposed, considering my 1 rep max was 250-260 when I started back in April.

I don't think I have to guess, really.

Will do fluff at Planet Fitness

Oh, I forgot I said that. Thanks for paying attention :-)

Didn't get a lot of work in today, because I decided to rotate in with 4 other lifters benching. It's fun, good motivation, etc...but the rests are too long, and I could only stay a little over an hour:

Bench 280x3 (spot 3rd), 280x2, 280x3 (spot), 280x2, + Magnum Ram 320x3@9

Sheesh, over an hour for 13 work reps. And I *was* going to deadlift too :/

Called it quits as it seems like my whole body was one giant cramp. I need to start eating more again.

Weight has been pretty consistently around 178 lbs, but I seem to be gaining muscle.

Wednesday, 8/2/17
--------------------------
Bench w/ camber attachment
135x5
185x3
225x3x7 all paused
225x5

Chins
4 sets of 5
1 set of 9.75

Bench was not a traditional cambered bench bar for longer ROM, but a camber attachment on the bar where the weights swing freely like a cambered squat bar. I'm really liking this for both box squat and bench occasionally:
