Deadlift: 5x105 + 5x130 + 3x160 + 5x170 + 5x195 + 7x225 (270.04 1RM) BBB Squat 60%: 5x105 + 5x135 + 5x10x160 Crunch Machine: 3x10x30
BBB Squats were pretty brutal. Good thing I belted up on these. I had to rest a good 3-4 minutes between sets. After the deadlifts, I was already pretty low in the tank, but I was pretty dead set on finishing out all 5 sets no matter what. This concludes the first week of the second cycle.

Pretty easy bench session. Forgot to go the length on the last set of the bench.

Absolutely brutal. Legs were shot from no squatting for 2 weeks. Lesson to learn- don't skip out on rest week just because it's called a rest week. Deadlifts were insane. I was barely able to get through the 5 sets. I'll have to belt up on these, no question about it. The second month of the 3-month challenge meant that I had to increase weight on the BBB to 60% of 1RM. My diet was not up to par the last week. I haven't been able to consistently cook for myself- schedule's out of whack. I didn't have time to go through my full warm-up- I had less than an hour before gym close time.
