I say 400, obviously meaning 405 
It’s going well so far, I think I’m probably at ~335-340 at the moment.

That buddy wanted to hit legs with me tonight. So I told him sure, why not? Well… he bailed and did shoulders, but I said fuck it and rolled into my heavy legs. 385 moved great. Everything was solid. Very last rep came forward a bit, but nothing I couldn’t grunt back without a little effort.
Glad I got back on schedule.
No weighing the last couple days, I keep telling myself I don’t care right now, just to make ‘the fattening’ hurt a little less

Nothing more annoying than a mate who bails when the going gets tough. Good work sticking to you plan and getting it done.

Fairly fatigued from yesterday, didn’t push anything, pump felt good, probably could’ve worked more, but whatever, felt good, it’s for health and recovery at this point anyway. Speedy bench tomorrow. (@simo74 my boy wants to do speed bench and legs the next two days, so we shall see how that pans out he’s never done a ‘box squat’ he’s squatted to a box but never from a box. so…he’s in for a new feeling with that SSB, and I’m excited haha frickin bail on heavy legs? Think that’ll help you avoid the pain?!)
Weight is better, much less sloppy today.

Done. Lower back was pretty fatigued, definitely affected my speedy stuff, but it still moved well. Happy with it.
Weight was better than expected. Especially weighing 8 hours worth of food and drinks later in the day than normal

Decent day, decided to get back into it with the lighter speed work as opposed to jumping into heavy singles where I left off and was supposed to be picking back up. 195 felt a bit heavy, simply due to time away.
Weight: Solid, definitely feel tighter, hopefully the 7-8lbs stays off, ha.

A little column A, a little column B, ha! We had our twins two weeks ago, so I was sitting in the NICU for 14-16 hours a day with the girls, and then had a couple throw away workouts M-W earlier this week that weren’t worth logging. Everyone is doing well, everyone is home.

Pretty good day, the first rep at 300 was the worst, which is typical for me. But it moved fine and it just got better with the next 3 reps. The dummy set at 225 felt surprisingly good as well, was kinda shooting for 15, but stall on the 12th, all good.
Weight: I’ve found those couple of pounds I lost

I’ve got a guy from out of town that I’ve met once or twice that hit me up to come do legs with me (am I famous?) today, so my normal routine has been thrown off, and I’ve eaten more than I normally do in the mornings, I’ve noticed that if I have oatmeal w/ protein at like 7am I am freaking starving by 10am, and then again by 1, like sick to my stomach hungry, but when I just have a protein shake or two throughout the morning like normal, I feel just fine, hungry by 1p, but not sick to my stomach hungry. Just a general observation made.
Edit: He got called into work and won’t make it anyway. Lame.

A better day than I expected, was a little worried when I hit the 390 and it felt like a truck, but 405 moved pretty dang well, came forward a bit, but easily corrected out of the hole. Attempting to drive up my rep strength a bit as well, hence the 5 x 6 x 225 to cap the squat portion off.
Weight: Pretty good for eating multiple times this morning (which is unusual for me).
