Haven't had a chance to update since last week. Everything's in a notebook though, so here's my final week on phase II.
Phase II, Day 21 (Monday):
-Front Squat: 5x5 @ 135 lbs. (one of my buddies showed me how to get the form down better. I did them off the squat rack and cleaned them first at the beginning of every set. Needless to say, my form feels ridiculously better, but I still feel like a total stick lifting such a small amount on squats.)
-Incline Bench Press: 5x5 @ 125 lbs. (finished this one really strong this week.)
-Bulgarian Split Squat: 2x8 @ bw + 2x50 lb. dumbbells
-One Armed Rows, Elbow Out: 2x8 w/50 lb. dumbbell
Phase II, Day 22 (Tuesday):
Just rode my bike around for about 30 minutes. Nothing special. (except seeing the lady friend I like at school
haha)
Phase II, Day 23 (Wednesday):
-Clean and Press: 5x5 @ 125 lbs. (This one felt awesome, I changed my foot stance on the press. Made a world of difference.)
-Weighted Chin-Ups: 5x5 @ bw + 27.5 lbs.
-Cable Pull-Throughs: 2x8 @ 80 lbs.
-Inclined Weighted Situps: 2x8 @ +25 lbs. (changed the way i was doing this one a bit too.)
Phase II, Day 24 (Thursday):
Hiked to the top of Mount Naomi. (9,980 ft. elevation) About 3.5 miles up. (probably wouldn't have done that much, but I was doing it during work with my crew.)
Phase II, Day 25 (Friday, final day):
-Trap Bar Dead-Lift: 5x5 @ 225 lbs.
-Dips: 5x5 @ BW + 60 lbs.
-Cable Rows: 2x8 @ 190 lbs.
-Reverse Hypers: 2x8 w/20lb. dumbbell
So.... Basically I feel awesome this week. I started the month at just over 135 lbs. I'm now a little over 138. Weight gain isn't substantial, but I haven't eaten anywhere near as much as I'd want to because of work. (actually some days I'm barely over 2,000 kcal)
Later today I might post some pics.
