    Back in black after easter.

    Had one workout during easter.

    Thursday 08.04.10
    I went down on all lifts now, to practice form and shit.
    S: 75kg (form was really awfull, i wasn't able to concentrate or something)
    B: 57,5kg (felt tough, but would have managed 60kg
    Pullups: 5-4-4 or something. Started with a very wide grip, and then narrowed it.

    S: 77,5kg Heavy, but could have done 80.
    P: 37,5kg Heavy, but did it without to much trouble
    DL: 85kg, heavy, the extension in lowerback died in the second rep, the rest was good.

    I'm ordering shoes later, and combined that I spent way to much money on food lately, I have to cut down as I'm completly fucking broke, I need to cut down a bit on the eating. Also, my suit don't fit anymore, and I'm gonna wear on 17th of may, so it's ok. I'll try to be at around 4000kcal every day instead of 5000kcal.

    S: 75 Feeling good
    P: 37.5 The last reps were heavy.

    Wednesday:
    S:77,5kg Ok, form felt sweet.
    B: 55k: Rather easy
    PC: 3x5 40kg. Need to keep working on the "jump" burt and not bending the elbows before the body is extended. Form is good enough to go up in weights.

    Friday:
    S: 80kg Ok, form felt swwet
    P: 40kg. Last set, last rep was heavy. Will consider 2kg raises.
    PU: 8,4,4.

    Tuesday:
    S: 82,5 - I think im getting the back positin more and more.
    Bench: 60kg
    DL: 85

    I got incredibly sore in the back after this workout. Think it waas due better back activation folloed by reasonable heavy DLs, and then awkard sleep position.

    Friday:
    S: 85 - felt good, but fucking heavy. I'm slighty dizzy after squats.
    P: 42.5 FAIL. 5-5-3. I knew this one would come soon, but fuck, allready. Well well, will keep drinking milk.
    Pullups: 10-3-3

    Kind of mad at the presses, but hey, they will go up after a while. Also, INDTP, but thats quite fine with me. Can't gain anymore fat, so if I'm starting to stall thats allright. Have ordered my do-wins, sweet!

    Squats 87,5kg FAIL. 4-5-3.

    I the first set was heavy due to bad unracking, bad breathing, bad tightening of muscles etc. Second was heavy, but I did it. Last set was heavy. I should have been able to complete the 4th rep, but alas. Bah. Been eating very bad and way to little due to prioritizing exams and reproducing organs interacting with reproducing organs. Shit happens. Doesn't really worry me too much.

    B: 62,5 Not too hard, not to easy. Filling the lungs, creating a solid platform to push from and just doing the reps with minimum breaks makes it easier.

    PC: 45. Form feels allright, still need to work on really jumping I think. Looking forward to get lifting shoes instead of soft-heel running shoes.

    Finally done with finals. Time to get back on track (for the fourth time? I suck). Got my Do-Wins now, sweet. Allthough I had to recalibrate when I was lower than parallell again. Squats felt more stable than barefot, presses felt very stable, and deadlifts were fucking sweet with the shoes.

    S: 80kg
    P: 37,5kg
    DL: 80kg

    S: 80kg - got them down again with my new shoes. Felt very good this time. Need to get next workout on video and post it.
    B: 55kg - easy.
    PC: 40kg - easy, and videotaped the last set. Need to get the bar closer to my chest, and completely extend.
