First post here; glad to be aboard. I'm currently beginning the third week of my current training cycle. I'm far too lazy to post the previous two weeks' training, so I'll just start from today. 37 years old, male, 5'9", 195 lbs, currently eating at a small deficit.

11/29/17 - Week 3
2-inch Deficit DL w/belt
445 x 1 @6
370 x 8 @7
370 x 8 @7.5
370 x 8 @8 (5 minute rests)
Incline TnG Bench (45 degrees)
190 x 8 @6.5
195 x 8 @8
190 x 8 @8
190 x 8 @10 (4 minute rests)
2-inch Deficit BB Hack Squat
180 x 8 @7
185 x 8 @7.5
185 x 8 @7.5 (3 minute rests)
Dip
+35 x 10 @6
+35 x 10 @7
+35 x 10 @10 (2.5 minute rests)
Deficit deads pretty much kicked my ass, so I was a little sluggish for the rest of the workout. Overall, though, it went well except for accidentally going to 10 on upper body stuff twice; I'm finding that RPE can be a little tricky with high volume upper body movements, but it's not a huge concern - I'll eventually get better at it.

Hey! I was a little slow on the uptake regarding the shake-up at the old board, but I'm glad I finally found this place

Not the greatest session today. I usually train in my basement, but I joined my wife at the U Mich gym. I felt fine at first but after a heavy single and two sets of 8 on squats, I was completely spent. The rest of the workout went downhill from there. My bench press has always lagged behind my other lifts, but it's particularly bad at the moment. My technique is all over the place; some sets/reps felt much easier than others. It's a very frustrating lift for me. To top things off, I tweaked my left oblique on my first set of RDLs. It's nothing major, but it's uncomfortable. Hopefully it won't hold me back too much.

Much better session than Saturday. My oblique feels a lot better, but it's still a little tender, so I put on my belt for sets 2 and 3 of squats. On bench, I focused on touching lower on my sternum and pushing the bar back toward the posts - felt much better.

Pretty good session overall. My oblique, though slightly achy, did not interfere with training at any point. My bench press still feels awkward as I'm working on adjusting my bar path, but everything else felt pretty solid.
