Becoming a non-pussy

[Gorlox22]

Looking good man. Bench has always been the hardest lift to go up for me too, but I found that they key was staying incredibly tight.

Squats
3x5x205
These difficult towards the end. Happy to be in the 200's though.

Press
5x3x110
Nailed it. There was some push from the floor on the first rep of almost every set though. So maybe not perfect.

Power Cleans
1x5x130
Did these but they were killing my right shoulder which was making that whole side lag. Had injured it before and wasnt looking for a repeat. Not sure what to do with this lift.

3x5@215
My notebook says these were easy except for the last set.

Bench
3x5@155
Felt like i coulda kept going.

Dead
1x5@245
Either a PR, or it tied, dont remember.

Wednesday 3/3/10
Squat
2x4@225
1x5@225
Damn those got heavy. I pussed out on the first two, I think I got trapped under the weights and had to leave the bar on the safeties. Nailed the third, but barely.

Press
2x3@115
2x2@115
1x3@115
My training notebook has these all over the place. I got the first two, missed the next, got a set, then missed the last.

Clean
Lets not talk about it.

Friday 3/5/10
Squat
3x5@225
Got it. Tore pants. Liked pants. Liked lift more.

Bench
1x5@160
2x4@160
1x2@160
I was very close. I pussed out on the two sets because i didnt have a spotter and was feeling mighty wobbly.

Deadlift
1x5@255
Yeahhh buddy. PR for sure. I remember hitting this for a single and thinking I was tough shit, kinda like doing 305 with hex bar haha.

Monday 3/8/10
Squat
1x3@235
Nothing. Could not fucking do my squats

Press
5x3@115
Did them. Each rep felt like torture.

Clean
FML.
This workout sucked. I hadn't been drinking my milk since before the weekend, due to money constaints... embarrassing. Mondays workout was a constant struggle against fatigue, i felt like I might keel over and pass at out any moment.

Today, Wednesday, I still felt weak as fuck. I worked hard outside the gym, and decided I'd wait till friday and give my body a chance to recover more.

Took a week off for spring break.
Back to under 170 pounds
Possibly injured my groin it hurts very bad, but it was worth it haha.

Gonna go lift in a little while, not sure what weights or even which workout to do. Might not squat.
