    Weigh-In: 290.2

    DB Bench 65x9, 55x12
    Pulldown (Supine) 215x9, 195x12
    DB Incline 60x9, 52.5x13
    Chest Supported Row 170x20,15,10 (45 total)
    Lateral Raise 17.5x11,6,5 (22 total)
    Barbell Shrug 135x20,20,15 (55 total)

    Getting tough to get the dumbbells in position for benching. They also apparently don't go up by 2.5 pound increments after a certain point, so that's going to make things interesting.

    I think I may have miscounted my first incline set, but the second is a correct count. I'll just do those weights again next week and shoot the upper limit on the first set.

    These barbell shrugs were the more strict kind, not the power kind done more to assist olympic lifts. Much better than the trap bar, but the damn bar slides right over my junk on every rep. That is not comfortable.

    Weigh-In: 288.6

    Incline Bench 165x8, 145x11
    Bent-over Row 145x12, 125x15
    Seated DB Press 45x12, 37.5x14
    Pulldown (prone) 180x12, 165x13
    DB Triceps Extension 45x20,10,7 (37 total)
    DB Curl 27.5x15,6,4 (25 total)

    I'm a little surprised how much weaker my incline bench is than my flat bench. Also disappointed the second set of the dumbbell presses seems stuck. Maybe they'll finally move up next week.

    Weigh-In: 288.6

    SSB Squat 145x9, 130x12
    SSB Goodmorning 130x9, 110x12
    Leg Press 355x20
    Seated Leg Curl 150x12, 130x13
    Seated Calf Raise 50x12,10,7 (29 total)
    Hanging Knee Raise x20, x17

    Starting to hit the problem of my arch wanting to pull apart on my left foot when I do those calf raises. I still think there is something wrong in the fascia underneath the foot, shit pops around in the foot itself whenever I do a movement like that.

    Not much worth noting. I'm surprised how much the RDLs are challenging my grip. I AM starting to finally feel it in the right places.

    Weigh-In: 286.6

    Incline Bench 165x9, 145x11
    Bent Over Row 150x12, 130x15
    Seated DB Press 47.5x10, 37.5x15
    Pulldown (prone) 185x9, 165x14
    DB Triceps Extension 45x20,11,8 (39 total)
    DB Curl 27.5x16,8,5 (29 total)

    I think I need to cement my incline press technique, particularly where I'm touching down with the bar. Also, I totally brain farted and did the triceps extensions with the weight from last week even though I should've gone up. But I still did more reps.

    Goodmornings definitely actually working the posterior chain now and not just my neck. Leg press was pretty damn hard. I don't really like seated leg curls I've decided, they are too awkward and hard to setup just right. Also, I've been getting frustrated with the weight loss starting to lag and honestly have been feeling VERY tired during the day. I'm gonna go ahead and hit a bigger dinner than usual tonight.

    Weigh-In: 288.4

    DB Bench 70x9, 60x12
    Pulldown (supine) 220x9, 200x12
    DB Incline 65x9, 55x12
    Chest Supported Row 200x20,11,7
    Lateral Raise 17.5x13,7,5
    Barbell Shrug 190x15,12,7

    Seems like there's been a sharp drop off in the weight loss. I tried making a dent by tightening up the eating even further but that doesn't seem to have made it budge. I think I'm just gonna stay steady for now. I think dropping out too much carbohydrate is causing me to develop weird issues with headaches and fatigue.
