W00t! First blog post!

Man, yesterday has really been a weird day. There was a blackout in my town the entire night which is why I couldn't go online . What sucks even more is the fact that I had to sleep without the A/C on . Stupid thunderstorm. Anyways, lately, I've been having inconsistent days with my lifting. Sometimes, I do better than the past weeks or I do worse. I have good days and bad days alot, especially after I stopped taking NO Xplode. I guess NO Xplode is like Creatine in which if you stop taking it, you get and feel a little bit weaker. Anyways, here's my performance with my lifting on legs from yesterday at a bodyweight of 150lb.

5 reps of 45lb x 2
2 reps of 135lb

2 reps of 365lb
7 reps of 315lb

12 reps of 220lb
12 reps of 260lb

Here's my performances on Monday, doing chest.

5 reps of 45lb x 2
3 reps of 135lb
3 reps of 185lb
3 reps of 225lb
1 rep of 275lb

1 rep of 325lb
2 reps of 315lb x 2
8 reps of 260lb
3 reps of 275lb
'til failure of 225lb

9 sets of Incline Bench Press

5 reps of 45lb x 2
3 reps of 135lb
2 reps of 225lb
1 rep of 275lb
1 rep of 295lb
4 reps of 255lb
6 reps of 245lb
5 reps of 225lb

Then ran about 3.39 miles in the threadmill for 30 minutes. This wasn't really the best day I've done with my benching or incline benching at all. I've been having really off days with my benching, but I'm getting there. Atleast, I managed to bench 350lb this time. Last week, I couldn't do it, but the week before that, I did it. Hopefully, it gets more consistent this time. Later tonight, I'm going to be doing deadlifts and work on my back.

Considering the fact that I only weight 150lb, that's pretty good.

Also, I would like to congratulate my friend, Rameen Hashemiyoon, for winning the powerlifting contest and taking 1st place on bicep curls and 2nd place on deadlifts. Heh, I guess I must have inspired the guy, huh? . Too bad I wasn't there to see it although he will send me pictures of his powerlifting contest, so I can put it in this blog either later today, tomorrow, or whenever.
