Squat (5x2)
208
Bench (5x3)
174.25x(5+4+4)
Power Clean (3x5)
94.5 (PR)
This was a mixed day, the Bench didn't go up on the last reps, but I hope it will be done the next workout. I'm happy for the P.Clean though!
During the days I was absent, I've been eating meat like a mofo, the problem is that I've only been eating meat. Bacon and lamb were delicious in Kosovo (that's where the wedding was), so I really enjoyed it, plus we had a very good time.
Yesterday also was preaching day. There were a couple of young boys, who have come to the gym a month ago, doing bicep curls and 4 (I literally mean four) exercises for the chest, and 3 for biceps. I demonstrated them the deadlift and the squat, and was telling them they've got to eat a lot. They are seriously underweight, and guess what they told me: they were afraid they wouldn't have a flat stomach anymore! I know, our society overrates the "core" and that is still the trend, but to be honest if somebody bigger and stronger than me would have suggested that a couple of years ago, I would have listened more carefully.
