Not to mention Christmas too, so I know what you mean, it might be slow. I didn't want to go through Inzer because of their reputation for poor customer service, but I couldn't resist the red/white/blue version of the belt you ordered. Out my order through last monday too, I'm hoping to have it by the end of next week. Yours should come soon since black belts are usually in stock.
I don't believe he finished the hashbrowns.
Fri 12-11:
Squat - 10X45, 5X135, 3X200, 2X245, 1X295, 1X335, 1X360, 1X380, 3X5@398# *felt pretty easy...easy being relative hurt bicep/elbow
Bench - 10X45, 5X135, 4X176, 2X200, 1X225, 3X5@252.5# *had to keep wrists really vertical, normal bench grip hurt like hell, otherwise okay
Chins - 14,12,9 *oddly these don't hurt bicep, maybe it's an elbow thing?
Back ext. - 10, 10, 10 *do chins and back ext kind of like superset (hate that term) since the back ext are easy, need to add weight
Overall good lifting day besides the pain. Progress feels good. Monday I'll be back up to where I reset at. I feel like I got a decent amount of progression left.
It's my girls work dinner tonight. Free dinner at a nice resturant and whiskey ought to help the bicep.
James, shouldn't you be working instead of on the internet? haha

I was at work that last post. Now I am in line at the post office.
12-14 mon:
Squat - 10X45, 5X135, 3X200, 2X245, 1X295, 1X335, 1X360, 1X380, 3X5@400# * back to where I had to reset, weight felt pretty easy.
Press - 10X45, 5X90, 4X115, 2X135, 1X155, 3X5@178# * weight felt light, but I tweaked my back on the first set, need belt
Deads - Powerclean 4 warmups: 1X200, 1X247(PR), DL's: 1X295, 1X335, 1X375, 1X405, 1X5@423# *last rep hard
Curl - 2x20@45#
Really happy with how easy the squats were, PR time wed! Did not hurt elbow/bicep area as much this time, used a wider grip.
I cleaned the weight from the floor for my presses to help warm up for deads. Really want my damn belt to show up. I consistently hurt something in my left mid back during press. Chiro said I got a wierd ball of muscle spasms there, or something like that.
Happy I cleaned 247 warming up for deads. Ugly, but pretty easy. Back felt toast during deads, but I managed to grind them out. Overall, I'm fucking beat, but happy with the lifts. I need to sleep more, drink less.

No, drink more and sleep more. That is key.

Shit sleep last night cause I was up to late drinking. Not very bright of me. I was really thinking of doing a light squat day, but I told myself not to be a pussy. Really stoked about the squats, they felt pretty good too. Elbows were better, but still irritated.
After the squats the poor sleep caught up. I felt totally drained finishing the rest.
James, I'll have to try your theory with the more sleep part, I got the drinking right, haha.
