Deadlift
155x8
225x8
245x6
265x4
295x2
**These felt relatively easy. I'll boost up the weight next week.

Close Grip Pulldown
105x15
150x12
180x10
195x8
210x6
**The 210 was rather difficult, it's probably because I'm off CEE right now.

Seated Rows
135x8
150x8
170x6
**These were pretty easy, will boost up weight next week.

T-Bar Rows
95x10
115x8
135x6**Very happy about this weight - its the most I've ever done.

Biceps
DB Curls
40x10
45x8
50x4**I don't know why I couldn't get atleast 6 on these. My form started to break down at the 3rd rep for each arm.

Barbell Curls
60x15
80x12
100x10
120x8
**These felt awesome - my arms were feeling very full.

Overall I had a pretty good workout. Everything seemed relatively easy. This is strange because I'm on my off-cycling for CEE and everything still seems ok. I'm only taking Taurine preworkout right now and things are going smoothly.

or maybe because of the good weights you moved... congrats

175 lbs for 6 reps at BB shoulder press is more than I flat bench.

Keep it up bro!

Around 180. Yeah, I'm currently bulking for a couple more months, hopefully to hit 190 then cut down - not sure the weight yet.

I took your word T-Man about lowering the weight on my last set and it was OK.

Flat Wide Grip Benchpress
140x5
160x5
180x5
200x5
210x3 - I asked my spotter if he was helping a lot because it felt very easy and he said he was helping so I racked it.
210x3 - Couldn't put it up this time. He helped a lot on the last rep. The first two reps were OK.
(135x8)

Incline Wide Grip Benchpress
140x8
160x8

3foot Inclined Pushups
BWx15
BWx12
BWx12
BWx10(this was at the end of my entire workout)

Dips
BWx10
BWx8

Pec Flies
135x10
155x8 - The last rep was very difficult, my chest was extremely fatigued.

Cable Crossovers
40x10
60x8 - Last two reps were bad form

Wow... I did a shitload of sets... I know I should cut it down to the 10-15set range but I was having too much fun and couldn't stop lol. I'll try to lower the sets next week.

Also, I'm feeling very satisfied because I'm still doing fairly well even when I'm not on my CEE. I didn't even take taurine today, just a bowl of oatmeal 10minutes prior to my workout.

 

[Winter]

Just a little diet update.

I've gained 6lbs in the last 2weeks from a 4000+calorie diet consisting mainly on WW breads, cold cuts, eggwhites, shakes, rice, noodles, chicken and beef. I need more variety in my food, but hey, it's working real well so far. I'm planning on bulking for a couple of more weeks and cutting down for 4-5months. What do you think? Should I bulk longer? I want to be very cut before June.

What's your BF right now?

What's your BF right now?

I'm not sure, but I'd say around the mid teens to high teens, probably nearly 20 at most. I'll try to get a hold of something to check my bodyfat tomorrow.
