Monday 11/17/08 Week 1
Squat:
175x5
195x5
215x5

I'll tell you what, after the 3rd set I could barely stand, not to mention my breath was a little short. This is what I get for smoking. My form was good

Bench Press
175x5
155x5
155x5

175 on the first set was too much for me actually and my form was crippling. I lowered it to 155 to be safe and to not hurt myself.

Good news is my shoulder doesn't hurt anymore, neither does my back. Even on the bench press (which pretty much messed my shoulder up even more the last time I worked out) I didn't feel any pain. Looks like I'm at least healed and ready to go. I just want to be careful.

I skipped deadlifts and cardio for now. I'll do deadlifts Friday, and the cardio workout next week. My legs are hurting like HELL. I haven't done squats in at least a few months. As far as my diet is concerned, it's an AYCEC (all you can eat clean) buffet. No smoking today so far.

Once I fully get back into working out, I'm gonna unleash hell.
