Notes: Cut this workout short because I felt like garbage today. This is the 3rd day in a row where I’ve felt drained. Not sure what the deal is.
What is diet and sleep like?
Need to get better about uploading these. This was my first day back after a week and a half off.

Still feeling weak on my deadlifts. 3 weeks ago I pulled 465 lbs. for a 1RM personal best but now I’m struggling with 405. The weak point seems to be my hamstrings. Guess I just need to focus on them a little more on leg day.

My shoulders baffle me. Shoulder press, whether it be with dumbbells or barbell, is one of my strongest lifts and always has been. Yet from an appearance standpoint I definitely don’t consider my shoulders a strongpoint. I’m not sure if I have a tinge of body dysmorphia or its just genetics or what.
