1/21 Update
1/20
Delts/Tris
Today I focused more on hitting it hard on close grip bench. I started delts off with a pre-exhaust technique. I did seated side laterals before I did seated dumbbell press. I really like these cause I can go light and really feel the delts on the press. On my hypertrophy days I sometimes fluctuate with the exercises but I always try to hit the muscle from different angles and techniques.
1. Close grip bench- 225-10, 235-10, 240-10, 250-8
2. Seated side laterals- 20-14, 25-12, 25-12, 30-10
3. Seated DB shoulder press- 70-10, 75-10, 80-10 DS 40-10
4. HS tricep Dip machine WPS- 135-12, 145-12, 155-10, 160-10
5. Incline single DB laterals (leaning on the side if the bench)- 20-12, 15-12
6. Incline overhead double DB extension- 25-14, 30-12 30-12
7. Flex fitness seated overhead press- 80-14, 90-12
8. Underhand flat bar high cable extension- 80-14, 90-14, 100-12
9. Standing low cable single overhead extension- 40-12, 40-12, 40-12

1/25 Update
1/21 Leg Hypertrophy
This was my last time to hit it hard before I start my deload week. My second week also squatting with squat shoes. Felt very solid today. Had very high quality reps and progressed my last set to 325 for 10 on my last set. Hit some PRs today as well, in sumo deadlifts I went up to 375 for 10 on my last set. I honestly go barefoot when I do go over 350 just because I dont want any slippage at all. Did single leg extensions today to vary that exercise up. Felt a great pump in these and used a a double pause set on my last set for these. I used a reverse pyramid technique on hammer strength V squats. Started with a heavy set and lowered the weight each set and went for equal or higher reps. This is an awesome technique I under-use and recommended to any advanced weight-lifter.
1. Back squat-305-10, 315-10, 320-10, 325-10
2. Sumo Deads- 325-10, 355-10, 365-10, 375-10
3. HS V squat WPS- 170-10, 155-10, 145-12, 125-15
4. Cybex seated hamstring curl-130-12, 150-12, 160-12, 170-10
5. HS seated single leg extension- 50-15, 60-15, 70-12 Pause 15 sec-6 reps Pause 30 sec- 7 more reps
6. Lying hamstring curl- 130-12, 150-12, 170-10

BACK AT IT! Done with my deload week and on to some serious lifting!
1/31 Upper Power
Was expecting a little better day out of my incline press but hit a huge PR for me on the chest dips. The pull ups felt decent enough to hit 40 pound DBs for sets of 6 and made way up to the 95s on incline DB rows. My elbow was hurting me slightly and was running out of time so I had to include my power tricep movement on my next day at the end of my leg session
1. Incline DB press- 105-6, 115-6, 120-6, 120-5
2. Weighted pullups- 30-6, 30-6, 35-6, 40-6, 40-6
3. Weighted chest dips w/DB- 110-6, 120-6, 120-6, 125-6 PR!
4. Incline DB rows- 80-6, 85-6, 90-6, 95-6
5. Seated HS shoulder press WPS- 135-5, 135-5, 135-4 Big disappointment
6. Leaning heavy side DB raise- 40-8, 45-6
7. Standing DB alt. curl- 50-6, 55-6, 60-4, 55-6
2/1 Lower Power
Pretty much am back to where I left off at before my deload. Wouldve liked to go a bit heavier on front squats but it felt very heavy. The RDLs felt pretty good going up to 400 for 4 reps. Will more than likely switch this lift to heavy sumo deads next time.
1. Front squat- 275-5, 290-5, 300-5, 305-4, 310-4
2. Barbell RDLs- 365-4, 380-4, 390-4, 400-4
3. HS hack squat WPS- 180-8, 190-8, 200-8, 205-8
4. Flex Fitness seated ham curl- 225-8, 255-8, 270-8, 280-8
5. Flex fitness standing calve raise- 225-8, 225-8, 225-8, 240-8, 240-8
