decided to hit the gym today even though i was feeling tired. i felt good after my exam today and i have a date tonight with a girl i met saturday so i figured i might as well lift since im in the mood and im probably gonna be eating some extra calories later. my shoulder started bothering me during military press so i had to rest for a bit and drop the weight more than i wanted to but aside from that my legs felt strong and i matched my reps on rows from last week. this was also my first workout without a pre in a long time so i dont know if that hurt me or not.

military press- 95x8, 95x6, 85x4, 65x8

db lunges- 30x8, 30x8, 30x8, 30x8
i used the 30s because someone was using the 35s. my form was much better this week and my legs felt more stable.

dips- 6, 4, 3, 2
again, shoulder was bothering me.

t-bar rows- 45x8, 70x8, 70x8, 70x8, 45x8
got very difficult to pull during my second set, seems to happen when i do full body workouts or when my triceps are really pumped.

twisting crunches- 2x10
only did 2 sets because my lower back was starting to hurt.

i dont know if im hungry because its been almost 4 weeks on this diet or if its because im home on break with nothing to do, but appetite has been up the past 2 days. ive also taken naps both the last 2 days and i am never able to take naps so thats somewhat surprising.

woke up tired and my back was stiff but i had a killer workout today. took my pumpbol and a sample pack of purple wraath and hit the gym fasted.

lat pulldown, underhand grip- 50x10, 100x12, 170x8, 170x8, 170x8, 150x8, 140x6 + 2
my biceps were the biggest theyve been in a long time, arms felt huge. when i got home from the gym over an hour later they were still pumped. it looked like i had half a tennis ball in my arm.

squats- 95x5, 135x5, 185x8, 185x8, 185x8, 185x8, 185x5 and a negative

when i did my first set of 185 it felt like i needed more warm up reps but i pushed through anyways. this really tested my endurance and the lactic acid build up was brutal. i had to sit for about 8 minutes after my last set, my hamstrings and butt have never burned so badly from squats and my quads were wiped out

push ups- 8, 8, 7, 4, 3

again, waited about 8 minutes before getting into these so that might explain the improvement from the previous workouts.

deadlift- 185x8, 185x8, 185x6, 185x6, 185x6

i did these without the weight touching the ground and it killed my forearms. would have gotten 8 reps each set if my forearms were dead.

rested 8 minutes and did ab work
hanging knee raises- 12, 12, 10
semi-declined sit ups- 10, 10

im using a free trial pass and the gym didnt have an adjustable decline bench for me to do these on. i stopped after 2 sets because i felt light headed.

again, great workout. everything seems to be improving week to week which is very surprising considering my weight loss but maybe its because of my increasing stamina. my starting weight was ~218, my weight after the first 3 feast days was ~223 and today after my pwo shake and 3/4 gallon of water i weighed in at ~209. great results so far.
