No, I was just concerned that that was the total weight you were using for a barbell oh press.frenchbeauty said:
That is fine for db's and your bench numbers, continue on...

Haha I guess 35 using a barbell would be pretty weak.
WBA Im doing Incline after Flat because thats what it says on the workout plan. Well isnt it? I can switch though.

the workout plan says incline press followed by a dumbbell press not a flat bench press. 
it's honestly no big deal though. pretty much anything will work for right now, if you want to do incline then flat go for it. keep the reps higher (8+) on flat bench and tuck those elbows to protect the shoulders.

It doesn't matter how good-looking you are, how romantic you are, how funny you are... or anything else. If she doesn't have something INVESTED in you and the relationship, preferably quite a LOT invested, she'll dump you, without even the slightest hesitation, as soon as someone a little more "interesting" comes along.

Heyguys,
Yesterdays WO:
DLs 2*5 @ 245-> painful
Then my buddy and I maxed out on bench, I pulled one rep @ 205 then failed at 210.
Bicep Curl @ 25DB 2 sets
Reverse Curls
Rows @ 100 2*8
Still keeping up with diet. However I have a question. My dream is to play for my unis US football team next year as a runningback. Im a pretty fast kid and I have quick feet, my 40yard dash is around 4.6. Thats one of the reasons I want to gain weight, but Id like to increase speed as well, at least try not to lose it.
Is my current WO alright? Or is it gonna slow me down?
Take care guys.

At this point you probably have a woman (or multiple women) chasing you around, calling you all the time, wanting to be with you. So let's talk about how to KEEP a woman interested in you once you have her. This is BIG! There is nothing worse than getting dumped by a woman that you really, really like.

I would go easy and deload on the next squat day, upper if you feel you need it. This is if you are taking a week off at Christmas/New Year. If not, then I would maybe do a full deload for the whole week, but only if you feel it neccasary. Definitely on the squats though.

Hey guys ,
I'm back after a three week break, and I've been posting on an other fitness forum for a bit. So right now trying to get back up to my pre - break strength levels ....
Weight was at 181lbs before break ... it dropped to 176lbs before last week, and I'm now at 178lbs.
Today's WO:
Really happy with it .
Incline BP : 6/5 @ 140lbs
DB Flat Bench Press : 6 @ 65lbs , 10 @ 60 lbs.
Shoulder Press : 9 / 8 @ 35 lbs
2 sets of Triceps Pulldowns to finish
My goal is now to get up to 190lbs by the end of April. We'll see how that goes.
Take care people. FB
