LOL!
Your bench rocks! And now you can bench a Mascherano 
Awesome numbers on the sqwat and DL - you’re always so consistent. Love it!
And love the halloween costume. Owlie’s rockin’ the poom poom shorts!! And all is right in the world…
You are beyond adorable.
Add me to the list voting your legs as absolutely perfect.
I love your costume! Who cares if they didn’t know you were Hello Kitty, you look hot either way
Still jell-o of the squats
Lol, Masch at least I know if I am stuck on a deserted island with a Mascherano I can still put in work on my upper body. My goal would be to strict overhead press you!!
Hallowed, you are making me blush. I credit my backsquat. I also want my legs to be bigger, so I hope you still like em then lol.
Nikki, you are too kind and that was a perfect segue for this…
I AM STATING MY OFFICIAL INTENTION TO FINALLY BUST THROUGH MY SQUAT PLATEAU. Gonna squat 2x/week. One high volume/medium intensity day and one low volume/high intensity day. I also gunna EAT. Until January. Trying 1800-2000 kcal per day and see how that fairs. I realize that when I’m trying to gain I eat really clean because I am so full from all the extra clean calories. When I’m trying to cut I also eat clean because duh. When I’m maintaining I sometimes still eat like an 8 yr old unleashed in the poptart pantry (only I don’t eat poptarts cuz I don’t like em but you get the picture).
warm up 15 min easy on incline tredmill…
Squats:

135x5
155x3
185x3
195x5
200x5
205x5
210x5x2
Yay, was only planning on doing 195-5x5 since I squatted heavy and deadlifted Friday, but hey guess what it was so freaking easy I had to slap more weight on. I think I am going to have to face the facts that especially in deadlift and squat I should be training heavy more often that I have been. We’ll see. My damn elbow acted up because I did ridiculous amounts of arms exercises yesterday out of vanity. I was almost crying between sets but it feels fine now.
Glute bridge/explosive assercise
135x10
235x8x3
leg press and extensions-kept to minimum
standing leg curls
careful with that elbow!
I have elbow- itis or whatever the heck you wanna call it and can’t(or prefer not to) do certain movements because of it. I think its from carrying my daughter everywhere for two years…even when the hubby was on deployment the last time, I could hold her and clean or make dinner one handed, haha.
So whats your plateau you WILL break through?
245 is my previous max…I’m BUSTIN out to 250, baby! Lol, my goal right now is to have 225 manageable for 3 sets of 5 or more across by the end of December. I plan to start cutting weight sometime in January and would like to have a 265 squat by then. The reason I’m talking about this is because I have been making slow but steady progress on bench and deadlifts but not squats. Time to step it up a notch!
Good news is I feel my neck is finally adapting to all the squatting and deadlifting. I remember it used to feel strained all the time, but now it feels strong and rock solid. Don’t know if this is rational or not but all I can this is yay my head is safe!
Yeah, I will definitely not be doing triceps extensions or preacher curls for a lil bit, because I blame them for the pain this time.
I am so jealous of your legs! No wonder mine don’t squat very much 
well I can’t promise anything. Really you’re going to need to post weekly leg pic updates so I can make sure I STILL LIKE THEM.
Nice “assercizing” you did there! You’ll get your squat where you want. I believes in ur legs. Hard.
your “plateau” is great as it stands, but i get it–all in the personal goals. You’ll get it yesterday!
Actually,I bet you already have it is the 265 around 2x body weight? if so you are really close…such a impressive fucking goal!
and for goodness sakes you jerk–your bench is phenomenal! I am always utterly jealous…sigh.
You are putting up sick numbers for your bw. I like it.
eat and lift. I like where this is going Owlie.
Incline Press:
107.5x3x3
dumbbell flat bench
40x12x3
lateral raises
10x12x3
Feeling kind of shitty and burnt out. I hope I’m back in business for squats and deadlifts tomorrow
Oh great, now Owlie’s gonna squat twice a week, so my esteem can take a nosedive twice a week 
That sounds like an awesome plan, and I hear you on the maintenance eating. My “maintenance” eating was really a bulk when I did that months ago.
I’m sure you’ll be fine for squats/DLs tomorrow. And if not, just remember that your shitty and burnt out is better than my best days haha

Hmm…possible time for deload? Still, nice benching.
Yeah buddy! I think squatting 2x a week makes sense. You’ll def be bustin that plateau. Go Owlie!
Nikki- You were right! Despite my initial doubts, after a few warm up sets I was ready to go.
Maschy- I think that could have been it. That’s why I like throwing that incline press day in there because it kind of operates as a working deload, even more so if I decide to do overhead press.
Squats:
barx10
115x8
135x6
185x5
205x5
