Good leg workout. Set a record on military press with 180 X 5. I can tell that my body is getting tired of cutting. It's getting harder and I feel a little weaker and less full in the gym.

At the beginning of my cut I was gaining energy every day because I was lighter and felt better. I walked around with a full body pump all the time. Now, my muscles feel flat and my hunger is greater. Only a few more weeks.

Weigh in this morning in a bit...

241.2! Down 2.3lbs this week and 19.8lbs overall!

Geez that's terrific. Great work.

And you'll be primed that much more for your Blueprint run!

Chest and tris:

I decided to majorly switch it up today and did high reps and circuit-like training.

Incline BB Bench - 140 X 12 X 2
Super Set w/incline flies - 30 X 12 X 2

There was absolutely no rest between sets. 48 straight reps.

Incline DB Bench - 80 X 10, 80 X 6
Super Set w/Dips - 6, 4

Again, no rest.

Straight Bar Tricep Extension - 72 X 12 X 2
Super Set w/Reverse Grip - 60 X 12 X 2

No rest.

DB Skull Crusher - 30 X 10 X 2
Super Set w/Tricep Kickback - 20 X 10 X 2

No rest.

Pec Dec - giant drop set starting at 250

Close-grip Bench - 140 X 10 X 3
Super Set w/Leg Lifts - 15 X 3

It was a different, but fun workout. Took about an hour.

Great move on the switching it up!

Sometimes, you just need to listen to what your body is telling you. You did that here and it benefitted both mind and body..

Definitely. My chest is a whole different kind of sore right now. Feels fantastic! I'm lifting legs at 4 today with some members of the bodybuilding club.

Solid leg today. Nothing crazy to report, but a squat PR! 430 X 2

Going for the big 500 during the Blueprint!!
