Thanks Ravi, it's the intensity that makes it fun!

Thanks, I have already gotten the 600 dead it's just a matter of getting it outside a meet.

Your overall work is still terrific, especially so soon after a meet when you're probably not firing on all cylinders.
As for your deadlift, Steve had Alan on a pretty good program which helped him hit a recent PR.

Thanks Kuyt, and trust me I'm not fully back it really shows on my bench and deadlift. I already PMed Steve with a question.

Notes: Everything went really well today. My incline bench just exploded today, last week I didn't even get 4 sets of 8 with 205 yet this week 11 reps after three sets with 5 more pounds.

I need some more cardio, the log C&P was pretty pathetic. I had the strength but was out of breath by rep 4.

Thanks Ravi, I don't remember the time it took to complete but it was a very long session.

Notes: Due to the feasting today I thought I should go ahead and lift. Today was the day I realized that my body is not ready for heavy squats again. So I'm going to stop 5/3/1 for awhile and focus on reps.

[Squatter]

Did I miss or forget something? - why aren't you ready for heavy squats? Nonetheless, some reppage on squats won't hurt!

[BendtheBar]

Strong and log. Have a great weekend MAB.
