Cycle #4
Squat: 5x125, 5x155, 3x185 + 5x210, 3x240, 4x270
I was pretty disappointed that I couldn't get 5 out of the top set. I was actually going for more, but I couldn't finish the 5th rep.
BBB **Squat: **10/8/6/6/5 x 145
I didn't use my belt on these sets. I probably should have. My legs were just dead after the 5/3/1.
Core:
10 x 10lb Weighted Situps
25 x 25lb Side Bends
10 x Lying Leg Raises
Conditioning:
1 mile at 2.5 spd

Cycle #4
Bench: 5x75, 5x95, 3x110 + 5x135, 3x145, 6x165 ?? Rep PR
The guy didn't understand when I said "don't help until I say so", so I'm not sure if I would even want to count 6 reps on my own. Used a PL arch to really dig my upper back into the bench and engage the lats.
BBB **Bench: **5x10x85
I maintained a regular width false grip on all sets. No load imbalances, felt very balanced. Also tucked elbows.
Dips: 9/5/3/3 + Dumbbell Fly: 4x10x15lb + Tricep Pushdown: 4x20x20lb + *Push-ups: *9/8/6/5
Used sort of a body-builder assistance on top of BBB bench. I was feeling especially fresh so I did a tiny bit more work.
Conditioning:
****Treadmill 10% incline
2min. warm-up 2.5spd
2x5.5spd sprints
Walk remainder until 1 mile

Cycle #4
Deadlift: 5x120, 5x150, 3x175 + 5x205, 3x230, 10x260 Rep PR
I don't know what to say. It seems almost fantastical that I actually cranked 10 out. Determination and putting that number in your head really does wonders.
BBB **Deadlift: **5x10x135
Messed up. I wrote down cycle #1 BBB deadlift numbers. And here I was thinking things were getting easier. Go brain farts.
Core:
10 x 10lb Weighted Situps
15 x Ab Wheel Rollouts
25 x 25lb Side Bends
5 x10 x Lying Leg Raises
