I thought today was going to be bad. Work was stressful yesterday, and I went to bed early last night, feeling exhausted and like I had the beginning of a cold. I awoke this morning feeling light-headed, but gradually felt better as the day went on.My workday went much, much better.

By the time I began working out, I felt energetic.

Chest Workout

Bench Press, 205×6, 205×4, 205×3

DB Bench Press, 65×9, 65×6

DB Overhead Press,  55×8, 55×6, 55×6

Close Grip Bench Press, 145×8, 145×6

Today’s calories = 2,900

On a side note, BB.com’s Misc. forum is out of control. I hopped on this morning for five minutes and witnessed a string of post replies that were beyond kosher. One poster was threatening to kill another because of their gender.

The inmates are ruling that asylum, and I for one am staying away. BB.com can do better than to let the crude garbage continue on their site.

Not much going on today. It is a rest day, and that is exactly what I plan on doing.

Sore legs. My legs are very sore from my box squatting day. And today was an intense bench day. My chest, delts and tri’s are fried, in a good way.

So, my pig out day yesterday taste great. But…but, I woke up today feeling like crap. I feel dehydrated, and awoke with a runny nose and a non-stop sneezing fit. Next time I will tell my urge for a cheat to go take a hike.

Chest, Workout A

Bench Press - Speed (Dynamic Effort) - 8 sets of 115×3 reps, 4 sets extra wide grip, 4 sets normal grip

B Bench Press - 50×12, 55×12, 55×8

Seated Overhead BB Press - 75×12, 75×10, 95×7

Chair Dips - 12, 9, 6

I increased my weight or reps on nearly every set I performed today.

Today’s calories = 2,700

On a side note, the State of Wisconsin is about to tax our wages an additional 15% for "free health care." This will lay a big hit on hard working poor and lower class like me. My mother worked in a laundry room her whole life and paid off a house and car on lower than $8 an hour. Yes, that’s right. Now, because she lives in TAX HELL, she has to pay personal property taxes out the wazoo, AND a huge tax hike for free health care.

God help us.
