Stats: 5'6 142 lbs (from 114) Goal is to keep on bulking until late November, then cut for wrestling season, then bulk back up after season.
Lifts:
Bench: 130x5 Goal by 16: 225x5 (I turn 16 in 11 months btw so i have a long time)
Squat: 155x5 Goal by 16: 315x5
Deadlift: 245x5 (deloaded from 275) Goal by 16: 405x5
I eat 2,800 calories a day
I keep track of main meals just so I can get my protein in but I don't really nitpick everything because hey its just food
I get about 145 grams of protein per day and fill the rest with carbs and fats
Right now I'm running a beginner push pull leg routine, and I prefer it over starting strenght or icf.
I wanna create this log so I can look back one day and say something like, "damn I was weak as hell"

Taking starting pics and measurements can help too, when you look back at progress.
Seems like a solid plan though, going for strength and growth while you're young is the best thing you can do.Short cuts to success are often paved with lies.
1/13/16: Massive hernia.
5/10/16: Finally back to lifting, light but improving.

Not making excuses but figured out why I had a weak day. Diet was **** yesterday, weather was cold, and I didn't eat enough. Today I got in my 145 g of protein and I'm about to order pizza for dinner. Not the healthiest but it fits my macros.
Hopefully tomorrow will go better, Im looking to hit 110 on rows. I also realized that I'm small boned compared to some of my friends that bench 185. Although they are a year older than me, that's not a valid excuse but I have 6 inch wrists and they are big boned. I'm gonna use this as motivation because I'd end up looking more aesthetic then my friends but I wanna be stronger, i don't know why, i started lifting to get lean as ****, but now I need to be stronger than the dude next to me.

Legs
Holy **** today was a good day
Squat: 150x5 150x5 150x5 (Deloaded from 160 but holy **** I went ATG asf, I even think I went too low! 2 weeks ago I could barely hit parallel. For the first time I can't wait till I squat again to see if I can do this on 155!)
GMA: 45x12 45x12 45x12 (Pushed myself on the last few reps for all sets
Leg press: 180x12 180x12 180x12, hamstrings and lowerback were sore from GMA's so didn't do too well
Leg curls: 60x12 60x12 60x12 (Hamstrings too sore to go for 65)
Calf raises: 80x12 80x12 80x12 80x12 80x12

Pull
Deadlift: 255 (Felt really easy, 265 should be a breeze and I should finally break 275)
Lat pulldown: 104x8 104x8 104x8 (Felt the same as 99 last time)
Cable row: 99x10 99x8 99x8 (My cable rows aren't really increasing, but my barbell rows are. Don't mind, just odd)
Facepull: 17.5x20 17.5x15 17.5x15
Curls: 50x8 50x8 50x8
Incline Hammer curls: 15x12 15x8 15x8
Taking a rest day tomorrow, have places to be. Can't wait to hit 155 on squats on monday. I ate 3,200 calories today, 400 above what I need but oh well it's just one day, I look sub 10 percent body fat with a shirt on even though I'm 15% and constantly bloated so can't really complain.

Legs
Squat: 155x5 155x5 155x3 fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuckkk
GMA: 45x12 45x12 45x12
Leg press: 190x12 190x12 190x12
Leg curls: 50x8 50x8 50x8\
Calf raises: 90x8 90x8 70x12 70x12 70x12
Ab crunch machine: 35x12 35x12 35x12 (Was really easy, felt like I could do the 45 plate but didnt really want to get out of the chair)
I'm kind of mad about the squat, but I'm not gonna do the same mistake I did last time and just bump it up to 160, I'm gonna stay at 155 until I can get a full 3 sets of 5. Other than that pretty good day, worked myself really really hard, I honestly was about to throw up because of how hard I was bracing during squats and leg press. Felt better after having a protein bar.

Quick updates:
8/1: Push: I ended up benching 130x5x2 then 130x4 fuuuck. My shoulders were tired out for military press so I pushed as much as I could for 5 reps, I think the weight was 75. I need to work on my rotator cuffs.
8/2: Pull: Rowed 115 easy, rows are going up way faster than I expected!
8/3: Legs: Squated 155x5x2 then got 7 reps for the last set. Felt light as ****, could have gone up to 160 but didnt want to push my luck

Updates:
8/4: PUSH
Bench: Finally got 130x5 for 3 sets, felt easy, can't wait to up to 135
Mp: 75x5 for 3 sets, will do 80 next week. Can usually do 80-85 if I don't bench first
8/5: Pull
Deadlift: 265x3 failed. I will try again next week
I ofcourse did accesories these last two days, I just havn't tracked them, but will do so next time. Today I got legs, and I should be squatting 160 for 3 sets of 5.
