Squat Deadlift Bench Press
Week 1 1x20@135lbs 4x6@275lbs 4x6@185lbs
Week one completed, I jumped into very challenging weights to kick off this workout instead of slowly working my way up, we'll see if it helps me go further for these next 8 weeks.

Squat Day
Squat 1x20@155lbs

Got lazy and decided to do abs tomorrow. At least I managed another week of 20 rep squats!
At this point I weigh 217lbs, so far I've gained 4lbs in 2 weeks with this program on Animal Pak, Animal M, and Xceed.

Dips 6,5@25lbs
Military Press 6,5,3@110lbs
Rear DB Lat Raise 3x6@25lbs

Another dissapointing performance on bench, but at least it was an improvement. Workout was overall a little weak, maybe I'm being lazy, or maybe it's something else...
Bodyweight is up to 218lbs.

Unfortunately my routine has been interrupted by an unbeleivable series of car problems + car accidents. Anyways, it was a brief 6 day break, and I think I lost about 2 lbs that should bounce back pretty fast. Back to the grind.

Weighted Dips 2x6@25lbs
Military Press 2x6,1x4@110lbs
DB Lateral Raises 3x6@25lbs
Skullcrusher 2x4@110lbs
Bodyweight down to 214lbs, gotta eat, gotta eat.
I switched to DB bench presses for the time being to see if it can help me work through a sticky point. Next week I can up the weight on Dips and DB Laterals.

Squat Deadlift Bench Press
Week 1 1x20@135lbs 4x6@275lbs 4x6@185lbs
Week 2 1x20@145lbs 4x6@285lbs 1x6@195lbs
Week 3 1x20@155lbs 4x6@295lbs 2x6@195lbs
Week 4 1x20@165lbs 4x6@305lbs 3x6@75lbs DBs
Weight has dropped significantly (211lbs) this week due to undereating which is due to stress. It'll even out over the next week or two, and then I'll be back on track. DBs = Dumbbells, as mentioned above, I'm going to use them for a couple of weeks to work through a plateau.

Friday - Bench Press
DB Bench Press 2x6,1x4@80lbs
Dips 2x6@30lbs
Military Press 6,4@115lbs
DB Lateral Raises 6@30lbs
Skullcrusher 6@30lbs
Upped the weights on db bench somewhat successfully, dips went up 5lbs successfully, and military press went up 5 lbs somewhat successfully. As for the last two exercises, I was interrupted in the middle of my set by a gym trainer (a slobby looking overweight one, likely to have some obscure qualification that conflicts with my understanding of bodybuilding) that told me I was doing skullcrushers wrong (because I go behind the head). I then told her that there's a common variation that goes behind the head for a larger range of motion. At that point another person in the gym (this is a chubby guy doing 10lb dumbbell curls while standing on a balance ball on one foot) joins in and tells me that for better isolation I should go to my forehead. I then told him I'm not going for isolation. Then I was told I'm a liability to the gym because my shoulders are at a high risk of getting blown out. At this point I gave up and went downstairs to inquire about a refund as I had just refreshed my membership today. I knew I should have stuck with my last gym!

Monday - Deadlift Day
Deadlift 4x6@315lbs
Wide Grip Pullups 6, 4
Cable Row 4@210lbs, 6@190lbs
DB Curl 5,4@50lbs
Successfull deadlift day, this one was much more of a battle and I can feel my form slipping near the end. Looks like failure is approaching within the month. I added Wide Grip Pullups back into the routine, its been about a month or longer since I hurt my upper back so maybe it'll be all better now. I was careful to stretch it out for much longer and warm up as well. The pullups definitely hurt my cable rows and db curls, which failed a little earlier than usual.
Now I'm enjoying an amazing concoction that must be at least 1000 calories:
3 Cups 2% milk
2 Scoops ON Whey (Choc)
1 Large raw egg
1 Tsp. Olive Oil
2 Tsp. Nat. Peanut Butter
1/3 Cup Oats
1 Cup Ice Cream (Choc)
1 Banana
MMMMM....multiple sources of protein, simple carbs, complex carbs, essential fatty acids, CALORIES, and it doesn't taste bad either. I'll have to have more of these super shakes.
Just punched in the nutritional values into fitday.com:
1315 calories
47g fat (19 sat, 5 poly, 18 mono)
126g carbs
92g protein
Not a bad bulk meal at all.
