A good workout today and turns out is the last 'A' workout of this phase. Everything felt really good except I am noticing that my grip seems to be a weak point and it is really starting to show. I am going to start adding plate pinches or holds into the ends of my workouts to improve my grip strength. On the push press my left arm was a lot stronger and only slightly faltered on reps 9 and 10 of the final set. 30s is ungodly short of a rest and by the end I was completely cooked and I wasn't able to do the side-bridges at all.
Also, yesterday was a weigh-in for me. Unfortunately it was another poor week. Only change up or down was chest down 0.5" everything else stayed the same from the week before. This weeks focus is going to be on tightening up the diet quite a bit as I find myself getting more and more lax as the weeks roll on. Hopefully by staying super strict this week I can get things jump-started again before the next phase of the workout starts.
