| Been playing lots of basketball, and not so much lifting... need a more regular sleep/wake and meal cycle. Still, was nice to finally break 200 on bench, and 300 on deads... need to start working squats back in again.
Need to get finger checked out still, and now tennis elbow i somehow picked up from basketball...

| Jammed finger is healing, but grip still hurts like a mother, especially on deadlifts
Creatine loading phase again. Bleh.
Bought 400g of caffeine anhydrous, probably not gonna start taking any until July though, partly because I don't access to a power rack or heavy weights for that matter, and the creatine loading.
Don't feel like paying for a month's membership since it's hella expensive, and I go back July 1st... Access to total weight of 245 lbs, which I guess is enough for benching, except for the lack of a spotter. We'll see.

| Vegetarianism is making me lose muscle fast, for some reason. Despite
this, my lifts are progressing. Today was kind of a mishmash, was going
to be solely legs, but I haven't done anything this past week since
getting home, and my friend got me into NYSC for free, so...
Squats
4 x 185 - No real trouble in terms of lifting, but realized form was poor, cut it short
5 x 185 - Perfect form, ATG, all that jazz, clean set
2 x 205 - Too big a jump, perhaps. Still haven't found ideal squating
weight, was able to do the first two fine, then legs gave out
Shrugs
5 x 185
5 x 185
5 x 185 - Trouble with last two
Step-ups
8 x 95 (Barbell)
8 x 50 (DB) - Knee pain again
8 x 50 (DB) - Knee issues again, will try to get it checked out sometime
Bench
5 x 175
3 x 195
1 x 205

| Today's workout was really ghetto and for lack of a better word, unsatisfactory. Really stupid idea to not get a rest day.
Bench
175 x 5
185 x 1
175 x 2
Arms gave out on second set, which is odd, because first set was really
clean and had good form, actually kind of easy... Don't know what
happened.
DB Bench Press
40 x 10
40 x 10
40 x 10
40 x 10
Clean, decent form. Left arm needs more work, right could definately do more
Barbell Rows
85 x 10
85 x 10
85 x 10
Concentrated on form, went pretty well. Much better form than last time.
DB Delt Flyes
15 x 10
15 x 10
15 x 10
10 x 10 Deload
Didn't realize just how bad my form was until 3rd set.
Weighted Crunches
35 x 10
35 x 10
35 x 10
First set's form was bad, rest was pretty good.
