Feeling a lot better today. Took yesterday off. Did legs today to see how everything felt.

Overall everything felt alright. No pain in my flank. A little in my right shoulder supporting the weight during squats.

Glutes, hip flexors, and quadriceps.

Well I did something last night at the gym because I am having so much pain in my right shoulder ai can barely raise my arm past shoulder height at the moment AND having serious pain in my right flank/abdomen just above pelvis crest. Really hoping this is not a hernia. Gonna stay off the weights for 2/3 days and see how it feels. Will have to get cardio in.

415. Nice deadlift. Your bent over rows are good as well. I used to do more weight on rows, but now i focus a lot more on the movement and feeling the contraction.

I always read them as well. Always good workouts posted in here. Strong dude!

Circuit training tonight. No rest between excercises. 2-3 min between circuit groups.

Seconded. It's not hard to maintain or even gain. Consistency is key.

Back for round two! 7.5 mins of jump rope Got frustrated with this today. Got a new jump rope and have not gotten used to the grips or how light it is. 35 mins of stairmaster (145 floors climbed) Getting back on my cardio regimen.

Trying to get my diet back in check. Between working 50-60 hours a week and taking 4 classes this semester it has been so/so.

I rarely ever train triceps or biceps. I feel like it is a waste of a workout.

Very true. Everything you do is cumulative and will catch up to you in the end for the most part. I got to watch The Green Milr again whilr I was at work last week. He will be missed with the personality big enough to match his size. Great talent and great lifting!

Just gonna play it by ear. I am so undecided on what I want to do. I really want to lost body fat percentages, but ten seconds later I think I want to do strongman type stuff. It is so much more fun than doing a dumbell curl.

Great workout tonight Jump rope warm up Goblet Squats with dumbell: 55x10, 75x10, 95x10, 120x10 While waiting for a rack to use...
