    New here, been journaling on å swedish board, but I think I can get more out of having a log here.

    Everything will be in kilos x reps.

    Comment:
    The squats felt good. Pretty light weights, since it's my deload week.

    The deads feel alot better after all the tips I got here after posting a video in another thread. Now I am using a higher hip position in the start, and the lifts feel more solid.

    Currently having some trouble with ITBS, and working as a mailman that's not the best thing. Have been using a strap above the knee to create a false insertion for the ITB. Works pretty good, but the inflammation seems eager to stay when I can't let it rest.

    Comment:
    I felt really tired when heading towards the gym. It's been a physically tough week at work with long days and too little sleep.

    The 85 kg set felt very heavy, so I decided not to push on the last heavy set. I will stay on the weights for this cycle through to see what happens. Might be time to step back a few cycles.

    I also decided to remove incline presses and dips to give room for more explosive presses and focus more on pure strength, instead of combining strength with bodybuilding, or whatever..

    Felt really crappy, almost as tired as the last bench session. No power in the legs at all.

    Comment:
    The workout felt great, loaded up with more carbs during the day. Came down to about 155 grams, compared to no carbs at all, which is the way I most often train when I'm just attending classes in school and not working.

    Tried some singles in the military press to see where I'm at, since I've picked up the exercise after some time away from it. The one at 60 kg was really slow.
