BW: 166

Bench: 45x10, 95x5, 135x5, 185x3x3, 210x5, 210x3
Squats: 45x10, 135x5, 185x5, 225x3, 250x5x5
Dips: (bw) 15, 12, 13

So... this morning I tried to do squats, and was thoroughly defeated. I worked my way up to 225 and couldn't even get quarter ROM. Just felt weak and felt a ton of pain in my lower back/glute area when I had weight on my back. So I gave up, moved on to have a shit bench session, said "fuck this shit" and left. Straight up depressing.

Came back in the afternoon and had my revenge. Hit all of my reps that I planned to do on squat in the morning, with little drama. Feels good man. Lower back feels fine now, but I'm gonna do some foam rolling anyway cause I feel like I probably need it.

GoTuNk!

Congrats Benken

First deadlift session in like 3-4 months, seems RDL+Shrugs have kept most of my strength. My uni got bumper plates and I am still not allowed to drop the bar on deadlift, fuckers. Holding the negative fries my quads more than anything lol.

BP: 127kgx3x3, 90x9
DL: 185kgx5, 185x3x7
Curl/Tricep Superset

Wanted to do more stuff but I had only an hour an half. God its tilting to be limited by the fucking equipment/rules/bullshit etc.

I pressed 40 kg(~90lbs)5RM yesterday. Which is 0.65x my bodyweight. A step closer to my goal of 0.75 for my 5RM.

Because I can't squat I have so much energy for upper body work :O. After doing chin ups with 40(~17.5kg) lbs. I figured I could try 45(~20kg). When that went great. I was like. Why not 55 lbs(25kg)? I did 3x2. People were impressed haha. Only 2.5 kg's to go for a BW bench press

I have decided I need to eat a lot more. I'm probably only eating around 2000~kcal a day. I'm gonna try to get it up to at least 2500. 2500 is so much food tho, what the hell. Maybe I should buy some protein shakes as well because I'm not getting enough protein :/

Can you do whole milk? Easily the best way to get tons of cals in. Also much better than sugary drinks D:

You eat like 1000 calories for 3 meals. Add 1000+ of milk and protein shake once or twice in between meals. It's not easy but it's not impossible.

I probably hit around 3500 a day now without really trying. Breakfast: eggs, bacon, milk, oj, yogurt, banana. Lunch: big burrito bowl w/ double meat. Dinner: 3/4 pound of meat, whole avocado, cheese, veggies, milk. Plus random snacking. When i went from 170 to 220 i was putting back ~5-6k a day. Went to the cafeteria 5-6x a day eating as much pasta/meat/peanutbutter/etc and then finishing every meal with 3 glasses of milk (2-4 liters of milk a day). That was brutal on my digestive system hahaha.

I can only imagine what steelandmalice eats T_T
