February 4, 201313 yr Started benching again my first time doing it was last week on my final lift I got 275 for a single. On my 2nd time doing it I put 225 up for 10 reps and ended with 300 for a single. Hope to bench today. Always good to come back and bench 300 again. We have a state bench record holder at our gym. He's freakish strong, and just ripped. He does 405 for reps at about 225lbs body weight, probably less???? I can't even squat 405.

February 4, 201313 yr Today is going to be terrible. It was supposed to be yesterday, but Saturday night/Sunday morning turned into a, "I can't believe that it is 3am already." drinking fest at a friend's birthday. Yesterday was miserable, but not miserable enough to stop me from having a couple during the game. I will pay the price after work. Deadlift EDT (Front Squat/Back EXT) Swim On the bright side, indoor soccer starts Sunday. That is a day of conditioning that won't take place on a treadmill or in a pool, so that's pretty cool.
February 4, 201313 yr Just ran the 5k at various speeds and with an incline of 1.0. Ran it at 32.5 minutes. That's 4.5 minutes better than last week and with the incline.
February 4, 201313 yr Just ran the 5k at various speeds and with an incline of 1.0. Ran it at 32.5 minutes. That's 4.5 minutes better than last week and with the incline. That's awesome. It's crazy how after doing stuff like that just once or twice you can improve so much just because you know what you can handle and how to hold a tempo. I just got done with tri's, bi's and some cardio. A few months ago when I ordered some stuff online from bodybuilding.com I got a free body tape measurer and I must say it makes this a lot more worthwhile and a scale. While I've dropped close to 30 lbs I kind of hit a plateau on weight loss which can be rather frustrating. The tape measurer has helped to put that frustration at ease because I've been able to track the inches lost around my midsection as well as the inches gained around my arm. Quite possibly the best free investment I've ever made.

February 4, 201313 yr I saw one of those at the GNC store today. I'm going to get one. Scales and I are not BFFs! Hoops order online. You'll save probably 30% or so and if you spend 75 or more they give you free stuff like the tape measurer. Also they alway send extra samples for you to try too. Shipping is usually only a few days.
