Thanks everyone. I'm pretty happy with it. I went for 275 right after but barely missed it. I coming up, but didn't quite have the energy for. I'll have it soon enough though. Also, the bench vid was going to come up today, but I'm on my way to Las Vegas to with the band for the WAC tournament. I'll have it up when I get back on my desktop at home.

Compiled a "weaker lifts" video that included bench and push press for youtube now that I'm back home and stuff.... youtube upload isn't doing anything. I feel like I'm making excuses for not having the video at this point and I hate that. It'll be up as soon as youtube upload is working again.

On the bright side. My parents got me pinole from Texas. It's basically an unfermented version of what the Tarahumara indians in Mexico drink. (Tesguino/corn beer). Lots of carbs and stuff. I'll be adding it to my breakfasts until it runs out. Hopefully it'll last since they were only able to get around 1.5 kg of the stuff.

EDIT: Oh... it actually uploaded. Youtube just wasn't showing anything. It's processing now. I'll link it when it's done.

This is impressive as hell.  I don't know any guys 150 or below who are anywhere near your lifts.  Good work.

Why thank you haha. It's kinda what happens when you try to to eat healthy and train for strength, but don't really end up gaining much weight. :P Still working hard though for both though. The strength gains come over time as long as you have the proper protein and nutrients. The hard part for me has always been weight gain. I'm like a freakin' jack rabbit, man. haha

Hell yeah. Actually, I've been making some pretty awesome shakes. Split into two for the schoolday: 2 bananas, 5 strawberries, 3 tablespoons peanut butter, 2 scoops vanilla protein powder, a little over 2 cups whole milk.

Sam's switched their EAS to muscletech, so I've been buying that in bulk instead. Don't really care much for brand, but it's the cheapest stuff I can get, so it's what I use.

That looks so good right now that I'll probably stop by Casper's ice cream to get something like that after my workout. Mmmmm

Shoot dang. I should have annotated the video. The lifts are in the description if I remember. Yes, bench press is 175, then 185.

The last few weeks I've started going to my friend's gymn on Saturday mornings.

Last week I started learning a bit of pommel horse (super fun). And I actually got to the point where I could do two circles on the mushroom.

This morning I was only in for a bit but I started learning giants. (super tiring... you can't even imagine)

So this is something I did this week....

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MV7_VebYRg" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MV7_VebYRg</a>


Recording isn't that great, but Harry was absolutely amazing at the concert. You can see me bobbing my head in time at the start. I'm in the back row farthest left with the trumpets.  :P

Also.... yesterday's main stuff:

Squat: 240lb 3x3, 205x8
Bench: 165 3x3, 135x8
DB Push Press: 45 lb dbs 3x6, 40lbx6

All   :personal-record:

Today's junk, 2/5/2012 (I'm gonna format dates in non-american style because it just makes more sense. d/m/y):

Squats: 190x20 (Sweet mercy, that took a while. Arms were completely numb on the last 5 reps)  :personal-record:

Dips S1: 3x15 (last 3 on third circuit were crazy hard) 

Pullups S1: 3x7

Incline situps S1: 3x15


Feel like garbage. Walk back to car on other side of campus. Vomit halfway there. Feel like a champion. Continue walking then get an awesome jug of chocolate milk for the drive home.
