Just finished workout #2 for feast! It was fun!



Bench: 205 - 1 x 5 PR (I only got 4, but my spotter helped me get 5)

DB Pullovers: 65 - 1 x 6 (These didn't hurt as much today)

EDT:

Incline DB Press: 70 - 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 8 (This is crazy, I guess I need to raise it AGAIN next time)

T-bar row (unsupported): 160 - 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6


Squat: 185 - 1 x 6 PR

SLDL: 185 - 1 x 6 PR

EDT:

Deadlift: 215 - 6, 6, 6, 6

Leg Press: 380 - 6, 6, 6, 6


Another incredible workout. I've never gone about 185 x 5 before on the bench and I just did 205 x 4. That's crazy. Not to mention that the incline bench is easy as well. Those 70's went up pretty nicely. I only needed help getting them up after set 3.

My squats were also pretty good. I really need to get those stronger, but they're already shooting up :) I was only able to do 4 sets on the last EDT because my hips began getting pretty stiff. I've always had trouble with my hip flexors so I didn't want to push it. All the cross country and track I did in highschool hurt my hips pretty bad.

Bench: 215 - 1 x 2

DB Pullovers: 65 - 1 x 6 (I didn't go heavy because of my shoulders...)

EDT:

Incline DB Press: 75 - 6, 6, 6, 6, 5, 5 (So, I've jumped up 10 lbs each arm since Monday...)

T-bar row (unsupported): 165 - 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6 PR


Squat: 195 - 1 x 2

SLDL: 185 - 1 x 6 PR

EDT:

Deadlift: 225 - 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6

Leg Press: 390 - 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6


I'm jumping up in strength, especially on the EDTs. Oh, and I didn't denote PR's on the HIT part because I've never done reps so low before. I'm sure they would be PRs since reps at lighter weight have been PRs, but I wasn't sure so I didn't denote it.

Anyway, today was an AWESOME workout AGAIN. I got very tired near the end and I was soaked in sweat. I must be doing something right. Everyone in my gym at school was looking at me like I'm crazy. Even my weak lifts are impressive at my school gym, at least with the morning crowd, lol. I also love hogging the squat rack and deadlift pad for like 30-40 minutes. Haha.

...No one gets annoyed..... *wink*

Great work Muoio117!!

Raining PR's in this log. Provided this continues, please tell the world over on Pink Magic dot com in the form of a review.

Just kidding. It's be nice but not necessary. Let them waste their hundreds of $ every month. More for us :)

Oh yeah, I expect these to begin to slow down once I start doing more volume when the GLP comes around.

Lol, yeah. I feel sorry for them in a way. But I will post a final review on other forums upon the completion of my first run. Well I intend to at least, but someone may need to remind me ;)

Bench: 200 - 1 x 6 (I did 8 w/ help) PR

DB Pullovers: 65 - 1 x 8

EDT:

Incline DB Press: 80 - 5 :: 75 - 6, 6, 6, 5, 4 (I tried 80lbs but I knew I couldn't keep that up so I dropped back down)

T-bar row (unsupported): 165 - 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6


Squat: 185 - 1 x 8 PR

SLDL: 185 - 1 x 8 PR




So today I felt pretty tired. I think I should have rested another day. It was a struggle getting through the workout. As you can see, I even skipped the second EDT block because I knew I couldn't make it through. I didn't want to risk injuring my back during deadlifts because of being tired. I've felt this way before; it's a prelude to overtraining. Therefore, I've decided to take at least 2 days off before my next workout, but most likely I'll take 3 days off just to be sure. I want to get a good 1RM and I think the extra rest day (3 total) will be beneficial.
