Start: 7:51am
Finish: 9:02am

Warm Up: Five minutes on the treadmill

Front Squats: 65/100/120/150/170x5 (2 min rest)
Lat Pulldowns: 80/120/140/160/180x5 (60 second)
BB Bench Press: 65/100/135/155x5/175x4 (2 min) (Sorry KC)
OH Press: 65x15/9/6/6/7/5/5/5/6/6 (60 second)

Thoughts: The Front Squats were good today. The clean from the floor on the last set was pretty good compared to last week.

Due to common sense, I held the last set on the Bench to four reps. I paused for five seconds between the third and the fourth and felt a bit of a twinge in the right medial delt. Decided four was better than going to the doctor.

Followed this with ten minutes of stretching.

I am dog tired today. My daughter was up most of the night with a sore stomach. As a guy, I hardly heard her. So my wife was up much more than I was. I did get up with her for a bit though.

This was the last day of this routine. I think I'll start one from "The New Rules Of Lifting" and see how that goes.

I will do an assessment at home this weekend. I'm off to Edmonton for two days and then I'll get an assessment done at the gym on Wednesday of next week.

My overall thoughts on this routine are good. I like the basic moves with a smidge of isolation stuff. We'll see what the assessments hold for me!
