Workout was okay. I wasn't able to get my 2nd rep in my last set of the bench press. I rested for 5 minutes because I wanted to try again, and I was still only able to get 1 rep. I didn't feel that strong today. That happens to me sometimes. Oh well. The strength will come back next time.

You are right about that extra day of rest scump. I normally would have, but I was trying to squeeze the workout in before I headed out of town.

Everyone has a bad day or two. Just move on and do your best next time.

That extra rest day always did wonders for me. Regroup, reload and press on. We're all here for you!

Great workout today. But, leg workouts are always good. Up'd the weight on SLDL. Solid form, and I didn't struggle at all to get them up. The stretch felt great.

On the 5th set, I was supposed to use 340, but I added up the weights wrong. At least my mistakes are always in a positive direction. Also, I added a 3rd rep for my 6th set because I knew I had it in there. Woohoo!

Awesome stuff!
Completely natural to miss a rep here or there. Keep pushing!

Thanks Rob. I love the encouragement on this forum. I know that I wouldn't be able to push myself as hard without this.

Good thing the EDT Blocks are almost over. The most my gym has is 100 lb dumbbells, so I wouldn't be able to increase the weight on my goblet squats.
