    Ick--Pride goest before destruction...

    Bodyweight: 209.4lbs
    C2 Rower: 3:00
    Squat: 240x5, 240x4, 235x5
    Bench Press: 130x4, 127.5x3
    Power Cleans: 105x3x5

    Notes: I felt good coming in today. My diet's been good the last two days. Maybe I could have squeezed in a few more hours sleep. But, man, 240 on squat was tough. I had to place the bar on the pins for the fifth rep of the second squat set, and something in that set hurt my left shoulder and elbow. I think that pain and resultant weakness hurt my bench press as well.

    I'm not discourages; just surprised. I fully expected to make the planned progress, but perhaps this is evidence that its time to go to 2.5lbs increases on bench press.

    6/5/2017 Workout Plan:
    Squats: 240x5x3
    Press: 105x5x3
    Deadlift: 285x5x1

    Default 6/5/2017 Workout

    Bodyweight: 215.4lbs (incautious weekend)
    C2 Rower: 3:00
    Squat: 240lbsx5x3 (PR)
    Press: 105lbsx5x3 (PR)
    Deadlift: 275lbsx3 (failure)

    Notes:
    -The left shoulder/elbow pain came back on the second set of squats and stuck around till midway through my deadlift warmups. All of the sudden, it wasn't there any more. Pain didn't restrict press like it seemed to restrict bench press.
    -I could not straighten my back on the fourth rep of work deadlifts. Better luck next time.

    Goals for 6/8/2017:
    Squat: 245lbsx5x3

    Two months later...

    Bodyweight: 213.6lbs
    C2 Rower: 3:00
    Squat: 155lbsx5x3
    Press: 75lbsx5x3
    Deadlift: 175lbsx5x1
    Bicep Curls: 45x2

    Notes:
    -So, I've been away for a while. Long story short, a 9 month pregnant wife, a newborn child, and a new job made it difficult to get away for a few hours at a time to lift. But, now I'm back, and ready to get back to where I left off.
    -I reset my levels, but expect to gain rapidly and return to previous weights soon.
    -I've added bicep curls for fun.

    Goals for 8/7/2017:
    Squat: 170lbsx5x3
    Bench Press: Starting
    Deadlift: 190x5x1
