November 25, 2011 Upper / Heavy

  • Bench Press: 245*3 255*3 270*3 255*3 245*3
  • Pullups: 75*2 75*2 70*3 70*3 70*2
  • Push Press: 185*3 190*3 195*3 205*2 210*2
  • Dips: 55*5 60*5 55*5
Great session; bench is moving up glacially slow.  I'm chomping at the bit here.  Pullups are going well, feel like I'm adding strength there. Still feels like the power movements are what's moving fastest for me; the push pressing especially.  I actually narrowly missed a 3rd rep at 205 and 210.  Dips went well too, glad they don't hurt my shoulders

On another note, I've gained back most of the weight I lost during the glycogen-depletion experiment pre-halloween, and subsequent week off to rest up for this bulk. I'm at 189 right now, and I'm gaining about a pound every few days.  I hope to be back to 193 by the first week of December.  I've noticed actually that I haven't really gained any fat at all so far.  I know it's early, but still.  It feels like the 'density' of my muscles is changing. I'm assuming it's from the olympic lifting I've added.  My body just looks 'denser', and just as lean. It's hard to describe, but it looks good so far.
