Thanks. I don’t have any place to vent but here unfortunately. I appreciate the encouragement
My Chest strength blows. By far my weakest part of my body. I need to take the bull by the horns on this and start taking my bench more serious. I hate benching mainly because I suck at it. I need to change that.

I am pretty confident I got proper depth. Just to make sure I did it two more times. Went up pretty easy. I would like to start video taping it.

First time doing these. I wish I had started doing them sooner. I liked how it hits my core as well as quads.
Hey Pistol, just found your log.
Inspiring to see you get in and grind every day - feeling good or not.
And the weight are going great too! I have the same deadlift as you (although probably not as easy as you do it) and am also aiming for 500. And I want a 225 push press.
Anyhow mate - good work and keep on keeping on; no sign of a plateau anywhere yet!

Thanks for the encouragement.I am crossing my fingers I dont plateau any time soon. Atleast until I hit 500 on the dead lift.

I was hoping for 325 for two reps. For some reason I just was not feeling as strong on the box today. I really struggled on these.

My Deads felt strong…which makes me wonder why my squats were weak the way they were. Weird.

Your bench and squat strength are in proportion. It’s your dead that makes them look weaker, dont sweat it man, your a strong mofo.[/quote]
I was speaking on my squat being weak on that particular day. I was planning doing 325 for 2 and couldnt…It just felt weak. But my glutes and hammies felt strong on the Romanian deads. I dont know if that made sense or not. Im over analyzing. Its what I do. You got sucked into my sick world and got confused.
My Back has never felt stronger. Good work out. I have been taking Beta Alanine from Bio Test for over a week. Im starting to notice a difference. My endurance has definitely improved. Cool stuff.

I woke more sore today than I have been in a long time after this work out. I notice my energy never tapers off in my workouts any more. I got to make myself stop. I am assuming this is from the Beta 7 Im taking. Awesome supplement.
I am taking as follows
Beta 7
Flame Out
Alpha Male
Rhodoila Rosea
Super Food
ZMA
Creatine
Natural Whey
Natural Caisen
I just realized Im addicted to Bio Test. I have an addictive personality. But at least Im addicted to putting good shit in my body instead of the bad now. My body has never looked better{I got a six pack for the first time in my life} or felt stronger. My relative strength is the best its ever been. Im pumped. I cant wait to get back in the gym. Unfortunately my work schedule is brutal right now and very physically demanding. I should be back on track by Thursday. In the mean time Im trying to put as much protein and healthy food in my gut as possible.
