Thanks guys...pierini, that it is lol. Mike...I appreciate the compliment. No doubt your deadlift will climb with time. I had to rebuild after the long layoff.

Deadlifts 5x135, 3x185, 1x225, 1x275, 1x315, 1x365, 1x405, 1x455
BORs 10x145, 10x175, 10x205

Notes: 30 lb deadlift PR within a matter of two weeks. Bodyweight today around 185-186 lbs. 455 was still not an absolute max but very close.

Flat Bench 10x45, 5x135, 5x155, 3x185, 1x225, 1x250, 6x225
Dips BWx5, BW+45x5, BW+90x5, BW+45x13
DB Hammer Curl/OHP 10x40
Face Pulls 15x130

Notes: For bench, I'm not honestly sure how much my spotter actually touched the bar. I felt like I could double 250 it went up so easily, and I'm hesitant to call 6x225 a PR because I just don't know. I slammed dips and had no energy for much of anything else.

Thank you guys. pierini, I've also been running, doing push ups and sit ups on my off-days, I just don't post it. I am trying to form a more all-around program to get the best of both sides.

Here's my belated congrats on your great deadlift PR from the other day. Your progress here at Discuss Fitness is a splendid example of progressive resistance training.

Keep up the good work.

For all those who don't know, my summer internship is over and I am working on my last semester of traditional undergraduate college work. I turn 21 in 10 days and my courses are challenging this semester. I am vice president of criminal justice honor society and president of foreign language honor society among other things. I am not trying to brag but rather to justify my absence and lack of encouragement for others on this board. I will try to post more often but it may not become a reality : /

Thanks for the update. I'll be cheering for you. Do sneak whatever workouts you can and do update us when you can.

You have been a great active member here, providing countless posts of encouragement and support for others. You pack alot of maturity on those young bones of yours. Enjoy your youth.

Hey Greg, checking things out to see how you are doing.

You'll get that PR soon. You really aren't one to miss something for too long. And that last deadlift PR...NICE.

I didn't know you were majoring in criminal justice. That's what my oldest daughter will start next month down at North Georgia.

Keep at the workouts whether you have time to post or not. See ya on the forum.
