    Happy Monday, all. Some catch-up posting; ended up not lifting Thursday but doubled up Friday to an extent so I got at least the majority of my sets in for the week. Been a bit of a culinary expedition since my last post, dinner out with in-laws on Thursday night, pizza at a lunch meeting on Friday, normal day Saturday, big birthday brunch for my niece yesterday, Chinese for dinner. Scale jumped back with a carb/sodium heavy day yesterday but feeling like it should come back down quickly. Will be a busy week getting ready for the little guy's christening this coming Sunday. Despite my efforts to not have it turn into a big thing we're going to end up with like 25 people at our house afterwards... not enthused.

    Cardio: light spin bike warm-up

    Strength: Upper Body Hypertrophy
    Flat bench, barbell rows, lateral raises, incline bench, barbell press, curls, ab work

    Assessment: Back to regularly scheduled work day today. Unsure on dinner plan, have to meet with a deacon regarding Sunday.

    Ended up not working out yesterday but hit those main scheduled lifts this morning. Chicken Salad for dinner last night again, same scheduled for tonight.

    Cardio: n/a

    Strength: Deadlifts, Squats, Pull-ups, Bench, Rows, OHP, Lateral Raises, Curls

    Assessment: I feel like I'm struggling to progress weight-wise, even with less volume. I'm not running a huge deficit but my left shoulder has been bothering me slightly, especially on overhead movements. Cracked 175 down to 174.8 on the scale this morning, lowest single weight since 12/20. I may get down to 170 on of these days yet.

    Decided not to lift this morning as it would've called for doubling up on some lifts from yesterday and the little guy didn't go to sleep as easily as usual last night. Planning to replicate what I did yesterday so I'll still get the prescribed volume and frequency in for the week.

    Cardio: n/a

    Strength: n/a

    Assessment: Chicken salads last night, lasagna at my in-laws tonight for my niece's birthday... even though we did a thing for her on Sunday...

    Hey gang!

    Happy TGIF!!! 4 clients this morning then 1 this evening. Well after having my van over 10 years, the waterpump finally went. Wasn't expecting to spend a bunch, but it's $700 to replace it due to how much labor it takes to get the damn thing out and put the thing back in.

    Strength: legs- leg press, front squats, leg extensions, lying leg curls, seated leg curls, stiff legged deadlifts. 4 x12,10,8, 6

    Assessment: Chicken fettucine for dinner.

    Happy Friday.

    Knocked out a good workout this morning. I think the left shoulder discomfort I've been having is coming from not enough rear delt work, going to look at putting more in my programming and maybe pick up a cable machine for stuff like face pulls. Would be good for other accessory work I usually don't bother doing currently.

    Cardio: Battle ropes warm up. Was a hypertrophy day for most of my lifts so I kept rest short and crammed a bunch into 70 minutes so you could almost call it circuit training

    Strength: Made up main lifts from yesterday and hit my Friday Upper Body Hypertrophy
    Squats 3 x 5 @ 295
    Deadlift 2 x 3 @ 315, heavy single at 385 as last set for fun
    DB lateral Raises 4 x 12 @ 15-20s (upped weight after first set)
    DB bent-over rear delt raises 4 x 12 @ 15-20s (superset with lateral raises so weight was same)
    Flat Barbell Bench 4 x 8 @ 175
    Barbell Row 4 x 8 @ 135
    DB Overhead press 3 x 8 @ 40s
    EZ bar curls 3 x 8 @65
    Pull Ups 3 x 8 @ unweighted

    Assessment: Ate too much yesterday, failed to resist cake and ice cream at in-laws. Eggs & Sausage for dinner tonight.

New competition-style flat bench set-up and sent on maiden voyage this morning, pulley machine yet to be assembled
