Overall Impression:-

good workout.

Military Press: new PR here. last record was 3x5x110 on texas method. 5x5x110 is a new PR. next week is a new PR too: 3x5x120. i hope it falls through.

Pull-ups: these are as predictable as paris weather (ive been to paris and one minute its sunny the next is rainy the third is cold and the fourth its warm again. i like paris - apart from its climate.)

Incline Bench Press: i like this exercise. 135 lbs seemed too damn light to me. next time im nailing 155. i found a certain way to do these (its different from my flat bench set-up). i can nail 200 lbs i think. i think.

Lat Pull Downs: damn.....my lats have become strong haha. my old DC record was 195 for 14 rest-paused. i guess this is a PR too but since i only count PRs for squat, bench, deads, incline bench, militaries and rows this aint counted.

Facepulls: this is like my rehab exercise (which is why i didnt include it in the total poundage). it felt good. i heard a distinctly loud and all too clear crackle in both my shoulders lol. i think they are happy too right nwo haha...

Diet: good today. 1 kilo chicken eaten plus (in case anyone knows about indian food) 25 rotis along with 2 mangoes plus 1 banana.

Overall: good workout. i was gonna do a lower light today but then i thought that if i do lower light right now i might not recover for next tuesday. so i decided to skip it. im glad.

thanks for reading guys! have a good weekend ahead
