Wed., 6/06. 222#. I somehow injured my L thumb at the proximal joint using my phone one-handed. Yeah, yeah, I know what that sounds like.
OHP: 45x..., 95x8, 135x8, 140x8, 147.5x8. I can still grip a bar, though. flipping plates around is a bit of a challenge.
Incline DB Press: 35x5, 40x5, 45x5, 50x5, 55x5, 60x8. will switch to 8s at one point.
Side Delts: 10x20, 15x20, 20. yeah, rest pause!
Dips: 8,8,8. torture. just, torture.
Tri pushdowns: 100x20, 80x20, 60x20, no rest.
leftover chicken, rice-fried eggs. NO, not egg-fried rice. the difference is the large number of eggs.
pain in my thumb is nothing compared to the constant hell-screaming from my calves.

Leftover hash - we got rotochix, black rice, bok choi, pink rice, hot sauce.
Later, we hang with some old friends for dinner, and end up finishing all their plates: steak, chicken, fries, calimari, ice cream, key lime pie.

Tues., 6/12. 222.5# last night was Carb Night. Pizza, garlic bread, mac & cheese, corn dogs, soda WITH SUGAR IN IT. The 8 year-old boy that comprises my soul was very happy. Just needed a few rounds of Donkey Kong on a tabletop Coleco machine, and it would have been perfect.
SQ: 135x8, 225x5, 315x2, 355x2, 375x2, 365x2.
HiBarSQ: 245x8,8. so weird.
GM: 45x8, 95x10,10. L knee doesn't like these. Well, L knee doesn't have a choice, does it? L knee is going to shut up and do what I tell it to do.
different machines this time:
Leg Curlz: 50x10,60x10,70x10.
Led Xtends: 50x15,60x15.
Calf Raises: 0x25, 10x25. not making that mistake twice in a row. this is about all they can handle right now, anyway.
slow-cooked spicy brisket with cauliflower, oranges.

Thurs., 6/14. 222.5#. My favorite boss ever died last night. Gonna be hard working for anyone else, even though I have four bosses left, and they're all mostly cool. But, I'm writing a song about Dunning-Kruger for my band to play Friday, so I got that going for me. Which is nice.
OHP: 45x..., 95x8, 135x5, 155x5,5,5. just going through the motions.
Seated BTN press: 45x8, 65x8, 95x8, 90x8, 85x8. A little uncomfortable, but nothing bad.

Sat., 6/16. 221.5#.

TBar Rows: 50x10, 60x10, 70x10.
Lat Pulldowns: 70x12, 80x12,12.

DB Curlz: 25x15,15,15.
CoC: 4x5.
Run some errands in the 1,000 degree heat index with a headache from the shrugs, then home to give a guitar lesson and grab a snack & pain pill. Later: grilled ribeye steak & shrimp with bourbon. No pain.

Summer Bulking, had me a blast...
Summer Bulking, happened so fast...
Made some snacks with high calories...
Heat index just hit one-oh-three...
On the porch, mending my jorts, oh, oh, oh -
Oh that summer bulk...
Heat wave broke, so it's cool and clammy outside, which means it's warm & clammy inside.
SQ: 45x...135x8, 225x5, 275x3, 315x8,8,8. pretty sure that's a volume PR.

Till I roll down the street

Thur., 6/21. 221#. Summer Cuttin', while I'm off blaast...
Summer Cuttin', can't happen too fast...
yeah, who knows? Wife is in the mood for a Cut & Butt (fat loss program with an emphasis on gluteal development), so looks like we'll both be headed down the scale.
OHP: 45x..., 95x8, 135x5, 160x2, 175x2, 180x2, 185x2. That second layback, tho... I might need moar Abz.

Side Delts: 20x10,10,10
Dips: 8,8,7.5 - rest times are still a thing.

Chins: 2,2,1,1,1,1,1,1, every 30 seconds, because I'm a maniac.
rosemary chicken & cauliflower rice with mushrooms, ripe mango for dessert. oh, heaven.

Sun., 6/24. 221.6#.
DL: 135x8, 225x5, 315x8,8,8 or 9. Wife says 9, I for sure counted 8. But, then again, I was pretty red in the face, and it was the third set, so I had the mental faculties of a Trump cabinet member. straps.
Rows: 185x10,10,10. That's about right for now. gettin' dizzy.
TBar Rows: 70x12,12,12. moving fast. could be heavier.
Lat Pulldowns: 70x15,12,12.
Rear Delts - hey, there's the Pec Deck. Let's sit in it backwards! 15x15, 20x15,15. niiiiice.
Curlz: I'm rooting around in the corner, looking at pipes, cambered axles, football bars, when I see it - shiny, shiny steel tailpipe loadable dumbell thingy, with a solid 3" diameter handle in the middle. must weigh 10#. My hand wraps around the handle, and I, I just, I have to curl this. 10x15, 15x15, 20x15, 10L, 11R, 15x15, 25x5, 10x15. Concentration style, sitting on a bench, with the elbow in the thigh, like a kid in the 80's. I love this thing.
CoC: can't find my gripper. shit.
roto chix and cheese between slices of bread with mustard & mayo. repeat. repeat.
Then, set up the tomato garden (using whey buckets this year), sift some compost, mix it with topsoil, pull some saplings, move some cinder blocks, dress up the strawberry bed, oh, shit, I'm doing yardwork.
Miller High Life in tallboys. Aww, yeah.

Tues., 6/26. 221#.
SQ: 45x..., 135x5, 225x5, 315x3, 340x5,5,5. whew. maybe it's the humidity, but I feel like I'm pushing it. or, maybe it's the fact that I haven't looked back in my log in a year - maybe this is liteweight, and I'm being a wimp. Does it even matter what I squatted a year ago? #thetimeismeow
HiBar: 225x10,10. sooo weeiird.
GM: 95x10,10,10. getting used to these. that can't be good.
Leg Xtends: 70x15,17. too many reps. I gon die.
Leg Curlz: 80x15,15, 70x15. I get to lie down; these are great. If I took a nap between sets, I wouldn't have to deload...
Calf Raises: 20x25,25,25. gotta get that streeetch at the bottom for maximum crazy.
Eggs, pork sausage. Breakfast anytime, all the time.
