****... School's hectic schedule does not allow me to do HST, which I really feel sorry for. HST does not allow me to work out 3 consecutive days in a week, which sometimes need to be done when school is very busy during the early week.
 
So, here I go, floating around with a split routine again.

Pretty happy with the squats. I think I should be doing more heavy weights on them. I shoot for a few sets of 25kg plates, instead of just one set next week.
 
Cutting is in my head right now, not sure yet though.
