And for me during finals, I love going to the gym mid day to break up my studies and refresh my mind. What reallly helps for me is prepping my last exam weeks in advance; that way I only have to study my summaries once or twice on the last day. Also, I drank way too much yesterday; fucking impossible to eat stuff when you feel like puking all day. I dunno how you do it Decaf, but combining rough nights with lifting is pretty much impossible for me. I just let go a few times a year and for the rest I abstain from alcohol 100%. | ||

Squat 1x3 60, 95, 115, 135, 3x3 152.5kg - wasn't hard, but wasn't as easy as I expected it to be. BP 1x3 45, 55, 65, 75, 5x3 90kg, 1x8 60 - fairly simple. Chin ups 3x3 +35kg L-Pull ups 2x5 Dumbbell BP 4-2 38kg, 2x8 28kg - It harder to actually get the 38's to the starting position than it is to press them. also, gym manager douche threw a hissy fit over the chalk, so now I have to buy liquid one. | ||

Well, I was deloading anyway, and I'm about to start cutting so I guess in a way it's just good timing. I'm gonna work myself back up to 100kg eventually, but when I do I'm gonna lift it right. I didn't hit it, if you're wondering, but I did wonder what it would be like. She was one of those muscly types, not roid-muscly but with very clear definition and very low bodyfat. I dunno, doesn't really appeal to me. | ||

edit: lady told me to point my toes less out and stand with my feet closer together. I started lowbar which is why my stance is pretty wide and outward I guess, but it always did feel a little off with highbar. | ||

Longer sets might take 2 breaths. During the last few reps of a true 20RM squat, just do what Jesus tells you. -Mark Rippetoe | ||
