well this fucking sucked

• RDL 5x5x225 (3 minute rests)
• Calf Raises 3x8x315 (60 seconds)
• Hamstring Curls 3x9x125

Not sure what happened but after the RDLs my back started to feel really bad. It's screwed up. Right at the absolute lower end of my back, right next to my spine on both sides, there's just a lot of sharp pain. It hurts to stand, but the more I stand the more the pain goes away. Walking hurts. Sitting doesn't, but I still feel it. Bending over feels terrible. Nice to see the stretching has been paying off.

fucked up weekend. I don't know what's going on but I've been sleeping almost every minute I haven't been working since Monday. 14 hours Friday and Saturday. Managed to get in my Friday session today, though.

Sweet brag: My computer just had a BSOD while I was writing this, and after an unexpected update and two reboots, Chrome still had this unsaved post stored. Good.

Drugglements

• 300mg caffeine
• 25mg Ephedrine
• 10g Creatine
• Multivitamin
• 10mg Loratadine

This was all done post-workout. 

What a piece of shit loratadine is. It's a cheap as hell allergy mediciation, I think around 8 cents/pill and it's only to be run once a day but this shit doesn't work at all. I blow my nose more than anyone I know, probably 30 times a day. I might give fexofenadine a shot(Allegra) and there's Pseudo in there so it'd be one less pill to take but it's pricey as hell, even the off-brand without pseudo is close to a $1.00/day I recall. I hate the idea of recurring payments for anything but I'll give it a shot. At least then I'll know. I've been on loratadine since August 4th and the benefits simply aren't there. I still can't leave the house without a handkerchief or I'm SOL.

MOVING ON

Gym

• OHP: 160: 5, 5, 5, 5, 4 (2.5 minutes)
• Front Raises 4x8x30s (60 seconds) (seated and standing)
• Cable Side Raises: 3x9x15 (60 seconds)
• Shrugs 2x10x225
• Abs GFY x ∞ x ∞^2 
• Cardio: 11 minutes, 4.1 mph, level 3, 172 BPM

-was surprised and very happy with OHP. Hitting the full 5x5 would have been great but that's life

- Doing the front raises while sitting takes all the work off my calves. Forearms are still getting torched beyond words, not sure how to solve that

- These are dumb but didn't hurt. 

- The ab wheel in my gym is a colossal piece of shit. The first two broke completely. Considering buying my own at this point

- 2 more minutes than last time, Still not sure what exactly is making me stop, whether it's WIL, calves, the extra .1 mph, or cardio. 

-Still sticking with my leg stretches and foam rolling. I can now go full force on my blue rumble roller again.

Gym

• Pullups +35 5x5 (3 minute rests)
• Face Pulls 3x10x95 (60 seconds)
• Bicep Curls 2x11x25s 2x8x25s (60 seconds)
• Row Machine 3x8x95s (60 seconds)
• Cardio: 9 minutes, 4.1 MPH, Level 3, 171 BPM

Not sure if it was the speed or what but just was not feeling the cardio at all. That heartrate after so little time isn't typical, though. Also, didn't get dizzy at any point in the workout. First time in ages. Maybe it was the Gatorade I had this morning

I decided yesterday that the way I'll be scaling my workouts is, rather than primarily increasing weight or reps, I'll be focusing on decreasing rest time. Usually I rest 5 minutes between sets on my main lift, and 90-120 on all accessory work. Today I kept it to about 3 minutes between sets on the main lift and 60 seconds on accessory work. I'm trying to focus on getting my heart in shape as it's the weakest part of my body(except my quads) so this should have a huge impact on everything else moving forward.

Gym

• Pullups +45: 6, 6, 3, 3, 3
• Face Pulls 3x10x95
• Cardio: 20 minutes, 4.0 MPH, Level 3, HR 170BPM
• Bicep Curls 25s: 11, 11, 11, 8
• Seated Row Machine 95s: 8, 8, 6

Felt very nauseous after doing face pulls, similar to Tuesday's workout. After sitting for 10 minutes I decided to just go for the cardio again. It feels really weird to do this but once again I was fine, so whatever works I guess.

oh hi

Pretty fat, 202.5 after the sauna, +7 from 2-3 weeks ago.

25mg Ephedrine
100mg Caffeine

Gym

• Bench 5x5x260
• Tricep Pushdowns 3x11x80
• Cardio 20 minutes, 4.0 MPH, 170BPM, level 3
• Incline Bench 3x8x155
• Dips 2x9

siiiiiiiiickkk session. Felt dizzy after the last bench rep which was a big grind. After tricep pushdowns I was getting nauseous, sat around for 10 minutes. Was going to leave because I knew lifting would make me barf. Decided to roll the dice on cardio and, surprisingly, I felt fine. Even did an extra 5 minutes. Then, afterwards, I still felt fine so I decided to finish what I started.

Going to be putting an emphasis on cardio until I can comfortably get through workouts without any lightheadedness. I want to really focus in on a better program and until I can comfortably get down to 60sec rests(I do 90 now, and it's not easy. 5 min on the big lifts) that's not going to happen. 

This felt awesome and I felt like a rock star. 

9.2.14 Triceps/Chest

Gym closed yesterday, still kinda sick

Gym

• Bench 2x9x205 1x6x205 plus a bunch of reps at 185 
• Tricep Pushdowns 3x9x80 
• Incline Bench 3x10x135 plus some DB bench stuff
• Dips 2x9

Gripping 185 hurt in my hands and my bones. Toward the end of the workout I started to feel better, go figure. I'm bored of cutting.
