Today my aura is: hammered doo-doo colored. You see, my li'l cold a couple o days ago turned into a full-blown, righteous bronchitis.
i worked out after work yesterday, and did chest. Didn't bump my max up for this cycle. Never really nailed any of my workouts last time 'round. But i got 'em all yesterday. The bronchitis did not help. i've been giving some serious thought to changing the focus of that workout. There's something cool about the thought of pushing a bunch of weight on bench, but it has nearly zero crossover value for me. Although i do think it's helping my shoulders. Dunno. Anyhow, i've thought about switching the heavy focus to weighted dips. Anyhow. Got 5 x 175, 5 x 185, and 5 x 200. And i feel like it would'a' been easier if i could have breathed. Did everything but the pushups. i was just sapped after that.
Today i climbed. i (again) mostly went in to study. But, dude, i was tired on v2s. i mean, i'd do a climb, and i felt like i'd have an admittable serum lactate. Couldn't breathe and couldn't shake the burn. It did get better after a while. i did repeat this v5 i did last time, and i got a big slew of 4s and 3s. But i got shut down on a project again. Now i'm tired to my spine. Feel like i could fall asleep on the keyboard here. 'Bout had it with coughing. Bleh. May sickness not fall upon your houses.

that sucks man. You seem to be plagued with the ear, nose, and throat diseases.
As for the workouts, you actually are supposed to alternate excersises every cycle with a similar movement. Heavy dips or close-grip bench are good alternatives to regular bench. I like partial range of motion excersises like floor presses or rack presses. Just try to stick to the compound movements. Tricep kickbacks probably wouldn't be so beneficial.
i'll avoid the exercises that have me posing on a bench flexing my show muscles. Mayhaps i should read up on the program so i've any idea what i am/amn't s'posed to do. But i think after this cycle i will switch to the heavy dips. Might do me some good. Gracias brutha.
That's one of the things I dig about this program. It's about overall strength. Not just getting good at powerlifting.
