 198 after a mostly fasted Sunday. 198 on Tuesday morning as well. But it feels like a good 198. Stomach is empty, no bloat, feeling lean overall. Can only get better from here! ----- Monday Morning Flat Bench 198.5x10, 2 sets - crap, forgot to load a 5 pounder 203.5x10, 3 sets DB Bench 82x10, 4 sets Suspended Pushup BWx10, 3 sets Lat Pulldown 115x15, 4 sets - 1 second hold at contraction Seated OH Press 90, 95, 100, 105, 110x6 Ab Wheel Rollouts BWx5, 4 sets 1 Arm Rope Press Afternoon Seated OH Press 90, 100, 110, 115x6 Standing OH Press 120, 125x6 Push Press 130, 135, 140, 145, 150, 155, 160x6 140x6 140x8, 4, 4 - rest pause set I was hoping to get more than 8, but I was a tad energetic and actually hit the ceiling on my first rep which messed me up a bit. My ceiling is at just the right height that if I keep a slight bend in my legs I can lock out. DB Lateral Raise 15, 10, 5 drop set (reps don't matter) superset with Standing DB Press 27x10, 3 sets Active Rest: Lat Pulldown 120x10, lots of sets Band Curl

48 Days - to continue my growth
Wednesday HFS, 3x8 Squat, 210 OH Press, 110 Deadlift, 296 Bench Press, 180 Bench Press 200, 220, 240x3 240x5 Active Rest: Lat Pulldown 115x10, several sets Band Face Pulls ------ After sticking with the program I designed for almost 10 months and 25 pounds of mass gains. I felt really stalled out....not in strength gains, things still felt good there, but in composition and weight gain. I needed a fresh stimulus. High Frequency Strength (see this past week's log) has been it. When I first told my wife that I was going to squat, bench, deadlift and OH press everyday in an attempt to jumpstart new gains, she said "Aren't you going to LOSE weight?" And her thought process made sense as I had worried about that very same thing. Even though my weight choice is moderate, the total tonnage weekly I move now is more due to the frequency of squatting and deadlifting in particular. So more weight moved equals more calories burned...and I wasn't planning on eating more because, honestly, at close to 6k calories, I don't feel like I can without developing an eating disorder, lol. I've grown weary of eating. So eating the same, burning more, my wife SHOULD have been correct. But sometimes 1+1 doesn't always equal 2. I can't say why, is it a hormonal response to squatting and deadlifting so much? I don't know and honestly I don't care right now. I've done it for 8 days now (Sunday off, so 7 days of B, Sq, OH, Dl daily), and I am up 1.5 pounds and I feel leaner. Being heavier and feeling leaner is the Holy Grail of bodybuilding. Will it continue to work? Again, I don't know, but I am going to ride this wave as long as I can.
