+ core work = ab roller & hanging leg raises

macros = 65f / 258c / 284p = 2805 w/~140g carbs pre-WO

hell yes.. I've been wanting that 605 for a double for some time now. doing deads at the very end of the workout makes it hard enough to break through barriers so I was super happy with this.. the lacerated flesh and resulting blood running down my shins are damn worth it at this point.. pre-workout carbs are dialed in (I think) and energy was pretty good the whole session. Looking to be close to 270 by the end of this 4 week cycle then back to maintenance for a couple weeks.

*note, I had forgotten how awesome the ab roller nails the abs, that felt pretty good.. definitely need to add those regularly.. I can definitely feel my core getting stronger.

In light of better throwing sessions, I've decided to change my weight training schedule arond a little. I'm going to be squatting on tuesdays instead of pressing. This may not be most ideal for weight training but I'll still push hard and get good sessions and I'm hoping I'll get more positive results out of my throwing on the weekends. Throwing while uber fatigued from a heavy squat session is teh suck..
