Slow leg progress,squat 135x10,205x5,235x5,275x5. Now I can at least squat more than I can incline press. Dumbell deadlifts, 4 sets x20 reps 60#. Then more squats,135x25. I feel a little better with squats again but it will take time.

http://ditillo2.blogspot.com/2015/02/how-i-train-bench-press-mike-macdonald.html I personally feel Mike was the greatest bench presser EVER, even to this day... He held the world records in 4 different weight classes simultaneously. He still holds a couple bench records in full power meets from the late70's (all 3 lifts) but his bench only records have finally been broken. I think Jeremy Hoonstra beat the 242 class record finally in 2012, 35 years unbroken:thumb:

275x3
315x4x6 Got them but I'm very tired

Deadlift

I may take the week off and deload... We'll see how the benching goes tomorrow.

A very lame but successful gym sesh today.

Lots of stretching, and a longer time on the treadmill today

Squats
lots x 135
5x225
5x275
5x315
3x365
3x365

Row
5x135
5x155
5x175
5x195

Rows started to aggravate my right side lower back, so something is def still upset with me, but I am gonna take it slow and ease back into it.

Not sure when I will attempt deads again at the risk of really tweaking my side.

Haha work has taken over :D... I also f**ked up my lower back erectors. My upper glutes have been off and on in spasm for the last 4-5 weeks. Not good... Back in PT to address my pretty severe mobility issues.

Started a new gym today. Really good friend bought it so I'll be spending a lot of time there. Went on my lunch and got a 45 min workout in since its 2 minutes from work not 15.
