beast mode cont…… My goal was 10 more pounds on my squat by the end of February.

so…….. 3/1/15 squat 4x245, 7x225, 7x225
          1/31/15 squat 4x235, 7x215, 7x215

Only missed it by one day on a short month so I am calling this one good. My progress over the month was less focused, but still ended up getting there.

10 more pounds on the bar for my 4/7/7 by April 1 is this months goal. My standing vert is improving, not back to PR levels but getting better. My 3 step approach will be something I work on this month.

Stupid sore today after yesterdays w/o. I've also been doing physical labor the last few days so that is not helping.

No basketball this week, so I should heal up a bit faster. aside from the doms I feel like a champ.

watched a newer documentary on bodybuilding last night. somehow I feel like I missed my calling.

didn't feel like I had progress in me this morning, but weights were better then expected. This last week i took it easy. 245 is feeling lighter on the warm up, unsure if I could have got 255 tho.

^^^^^ Word.

I meant feeling it more in a sore muscle sense, But I know what your saying. Actually things are great today.

Skipped b-ball today, so I focus on making progress on the squat.

I've been running sprints pre-squat work outs since it has been nicer outside. (the last 4 workouts) I'm getting a bit faster, feels good to add it back to the pre-workout dynamic stuff.
Feeling energized, been making steady progress the last month w/o getting worn down. moving and playing better.

Was well rested last week, squats felt super solid. This week I am back playing ball and squats feel heavy and awkward.
Seems like there are not enough days in the week for recovery. Plus it feels like I am barely doing anything and still come out wasted.
I have it in my head if I push any harder I am coming out of it injured. All mental?
