BB curls 115x10/115x10/115x10
Pinwheel curls 40x10/40x10/40x10
Skulls 110x5/110x5/110x5/110x5/110x5
Rope pulldowns 80x10/80x10/80x10 *
1 arm ext 40x10/40x10/40x10
*Usually do 140, but did on different machine with less pullys.
Still sick, i think its from a combination of coming back from brasil, and the changing climate. Still, i got decent weight. Since the site was all fucked up i wasnt able to check my previous weight so im not even sure if it was an increas/same weight/ decrease i think it was probably lighter than my last arm workout but i dont mind bc my cns is really fucking shot right now.

Legs
Squats 135x10/135x10/275x5/275x5/275x5/275x5/275x5
Leg press 540x5/540x9/540x8
Quad ext 150x10/150x10/150x10
SLD 135x10/185x10/185x10
Legs went good today. Went a little lighter with the squats than i wanted to and went ass to grass. Feel it alot more in my legs than if it was heavier and i didnt break parallel. Leg presses were hard as hell after the squats and the rep scheme was a little funny. it was my first time doing SLD's and ithink i did them fairly well. Put on a belt for my second and third set since my back was getting a little tight. All in all good legs today for me.

yeah its working good. my problem is missing too many days but once im on it consistantly its good. The routine is a classic 5x5 in that theres the inital 5 sets of 5 and then the other two exercises each with three sets of 8-10, where are you seeing the too many numbers angry?

but is it alright to 5x5 noncore workouts?

mainly, from what I learned and experience, 5x5 is mainly for bench/squat/dead only

i think you may be right, but i dont see why you couldnt do it with isolation exercises as well... DB presses for shoulders are isolation but i dont see why one couldnt benifit from a heavy 5x5 set. The arms may be a different story and ill adjust accordingly as the program progresses...anybody else have any input on this?

Chest and calves
Flat bench 135x15/275x5/275x5/275x5/275x5/275x5
Incline DB Press 90x10/90x10/90x10
Incline flys 50x10/50x7/50x7
Calves on leg press 360x15/260x15/360x15
Sitting calves raises 100x15/100x15
Crunches 70/70
Good workout today. Finally hit my bench for all 5 sets. Gonna go to 280. Hopfully ill get to 290 where i peaked when i was going consistantly, and pass that too. Hit my DB's for 3 solid sets so im going to go up to 95s next time. Increased the weight from 45 to 50 on the incline flys and def felt that. Calves o nthe leg press went good, i keep the same weight because i really like to squeeze and pause for calfs and too much weight would prevent this. Although i did throw on an extra 10 pounds. I hit 2 sets of ab's but cought a serious cramp in my lower ab and decided to leave. All in all solid routine.
