    2010-03-06 slowly gaining it back

    BW 266
    Squat 230
    Press 120
    Power Cleans 115

    Squats were weird, it was like I was afraid of the weight being to heavy, got all my work sets in but was not comfortable...

    shoulders were a little sore but the weight was no problem

    Press, technique is getting better, I dont feel like a full on retard just a little challenged

    Be good to your bowels and they will be good to you...

    A little dehydrated, but haven't had a BM in 12 hours, how exiting....

    Work out today used same weights as last work out.

    Squat 3x5x230
    Bench 3x5x175
    Deadlift 1x5x275

    Squat- 1st set, I got stuck at the bottom on the 5th rep, shrugged weight off my back, reracked inside the cage, put belt on and had no problem getting last 2 work sets done.

    Bench- struggled on last rep of all 3 work sets

    DL- added 10lbs got it done!

    general still weak from week of diarrhea, but it sure felt good to lift again...

    hurt my back on last rep of work set on DL on last work out. By Saturday night I was a puddle. I could barely move, It took everything I had to do the bare necessities like getting on and off the toilet and wiping my ass. Monday I went to my Chiro, he adjusted my SI joint and I hobeled back to work. By Tuesday morning I was in worse shape, I manage to make it through the day and went back to my Chiro, he adjusted my back again and it was like magic, I could walk fully upright again and about 90% of my pain went away. He told me to do some long stride walking, ice it and no squats. I did 2 short walks and 1 longer walk (about a mile) my back felt much better.

    Had great sleep, muscles in my back are a little tight and sore but "nerve pain" is gone. Went for another adjustment this am, Chiro said I could lift again in 48hrs!!!!

    Back still a little tight on the left side

    De-loaded all lifts by 10%+/-

    Squat 210
    Press 115
    PC 125

    Mentally struggled to get back at it, worried about my back. I'm going to start cleaning my diet up Monday. I'm way to fat and my big shit locker of a gut gets in the way of everything...

    Wore my belt for squat work sets and for all Deadlift sets.

    Almost had a heart attack, weighed in at 275.5 on Monday morning. The heaviest I have been in my life! Started Dr. Bernstein Diet on Monday and plan to stay on it for a month until my 40th b-day. I plan on dropping 30lbs by then...
