Workout on Monday, June 9th should be asterisked because I did it with an injury...lol. You can read about it in the injuries forum but the short story is that a 45lb plate fell on my shin before starting the deadlifts and scraped the skin off to the bone. It kind of hurt but I didn't want to lose the workout so I just sucked it up and drove on. Oh, and in case anyone notices, this workout really should have been done last Friday but I had an injury that couldn't be ignored. On Friday at my jiu-jitsu class I fell badly and hurt my back. Felt like my right kidney was bruised or something but regardless I didn't feel I could squat and deadlift like that. So I waited until Monday when it felt better (it hurt all weekend).


Squat 5 x 5 @ 250, 240, 240, 240, 240

Deadlift shrug 5 x 5 @ 240, 230, 230, 230, 230

Bulgarian split squat 5 x 5 @ 140, 140, 140, 130, 130
Step-ups 5 x 5 @ 140, 140, 140, 130, 130

Reverse crunch 3 x 15


I should also note that on the step-ups, the limiting factor is becoming how much weight I can hold in my hands. The 70lb DB's in each hand were getting very heavy and my forearms were getting just as much of a workout trying to hold those things. If I weren't at the end of H1, I would probably move to a bar pretty soon instead of DB's.
