My body is in need of a deload. I just have no desire to train. But, I have 1 more workout in this cycle. I'll do that Friday. Next week I'll just play around with what I feel like doing. The following week I'll be in Arkansas and I'll finish my last 3 weeks after spring break. Plan adjusted.

  • Deadlift Warm-ups 3x5@135
  • Ab Rollouts 3x10
  • Deadlift 225x5, 275x5, 315x5, 365x5
  • Push-ups 4x25
  • Pull-ups 4x5
  • Side Raises 2x20
  • DB Shrugs 2x20
I opted to do my 85% Training Max for 5 instead of the 5x5 sets. Good workout, despite feeling awful. On schedule, my body needs a deload after 6 weeks. I started feeling rundown last week. I know my body well.
