Tomorrow is my weigh in day, I have been gaining 1-2 lbs a week. I'm not doing GOMAD though, I'm just trying to get my protein. That being said the first 3 weeks I did not eat at a suplus I ate at a Deficit. so for 4 weeks I have been trying to gain weight and I have gained 6lbs. For only being a month in I'm obviously not packing on the mass. But I can see and feel the difference, some muscles that I could not really see before I can now. ie front Delts, and the lower inside part of my Quad, and I've noticed my Calves and forearms are getting fuller as well.

Last nights workout
all weights listed in Lbs.
Squat:
45 2x5
95 1x5
145 1x3
195 1x2
245 3x5 PR
Bench:
45 2x5
75 1x5
105 1x3
135 1x2
150 3x5 <<finally caught up with old PR
Deadlift:
135 2x5
175 1x3
250 1x2
295 1x5 PR
I increased deadlift by 10 instead of the 5 lbs as I had planned, because I knew it would be my grip failing instead of the legs or back. So I switched to a mixed grip for the last rep. What weight deadlift should I consider a belt?

Good job on the squat rack! your quite the craftsman
good progress too"Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way round or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves…" - Dao de Ching

Last night was a stressful night before the workout. The squat form was crap but I pushed so damn hard to get the reps I'm counting it anyways. Might redo the same weight tomorrow night not sure yet. My head really wasn't in it when I started the OHP. I was still focused on the stressful eveining I had. I will do better next time. Cleans went well, but I just wanted to finish the hell up so I did 3x5 instead of 5x3.

Tonights workout.
Last nights workout
all weights listed in Lbs.
Squat:
45 2x5
95 1x5
150 1x3
200 1x2
255 2 << crapped out
225 5 << 10% reset
225 10
Bench:
45 2x5
75 1x5
105 1x3
135 1x2
152.5 3x5 PR
Deadlift:
135 2x5
185 1x3
245 1x2
300 1x5 PR
I decided to reset squats 10% due to the piss poor form last few sessions, that and due to the fact I didn't have it in me to get even the third rep of the first set. Bench was a new PR though, as was Deadlift. I used Mixed grip for the last 2 reps of the working set.

Great PRs man. Nice round benchmark of 300 on the deads. Whats up with the squat?

Thanks!
The last few nights of squats have seen the form go down hill so when I couldnt make the 255, I decided it was time for a 10% reset. This is where I will now deviate from SSBBT ed. 2, and advance into a 2 x 5, 1 x fail.
p.s. I am damn sick of ON cookies and creme protein, and I'm glad that tub is almost done.
