Snowed in

My left hip was really bothering me for some reason last Friday so I skipped Week 1 Day 3 (my favorite day, deadlifts :( ) I also ended up skipping cardio this weekend since I was so busy.

So this week I'm doing week 1 again, and it went well!

Week 1 Day 1

Squats

Bar x 5
135 x 5
185 x 5

Add smallest box + 2 plates

225 x 5
255 x 5 x 2

I love box squats I think my form was pretty amazing.

SLSB DLs

175 x 5 x 3

Bent over rows

195 x 6 (shit form...)
185 x 6 x 3

Ezbar curlz

70 x 8 x 3

20 minutes elliptical

Diet was questionable this weekend because of 2 parties and helping prep for another one. And then pub food for the Patriots game yesterday. Nothing in the way of eating healthy this week though, I should be clear sailing until Christmas. I have a 3 day trip to Toronto coming up which is probably going to be disaster on the diet as well as the wallet, do whatever.

Going for broke with the wrist

Friday was Week 2 Workout 3 and I was having a hard time hitting 3 reps on bench press because of my wrist so I thought I'd go for some singles. 215 was really light, so I tried 225, also light. So I loaded up 235, it came off my chest easy but was a real grinder to lock out, damn weak triceps. I locked out though, personal record. That was without a spotter, I think I may have been able to do 240 or 245 for a single with one, that's pretty swell. All very slow and controlled, touched my chest but no bounce. I think I'm gonna go see the doc this week though and try to get another cortizone shot...
