Gym Day 1 ✅

Gym Day 142 ✅ Leg Day. Made a new PR on Hack Squats with 4 reps @ 70 lbs on each side. I tweaked my lower back gardening ~2 weeks ago and I'm finding pain in my lower back at the bottom of hack squats, so gonna cut them and back extensions out for 1-2 weeks

Gym Day 143 ✅ Arm Day. Reincorporating cable lateral raises again bc I bought cuffs. Reduced weight a bit on my hammer curls to rep out a bit more. Started taking creatine (ik I'm late), I hope this helps a lot. Doing some machine shoulder pressing instead of just dumbells now

Gym Day 144 ✅ Tweaked my back so I skipped 3 workouts. Arm day went well, new PR with the single tricep pulldown with 35 lbs. Creatine helped a lot; I did 50% more reps on all my tricep excercises

Gym Day 145 ✅ Leg Day. Had to be super super careful with my lower back. Did lighter weights. Made a new PR on Leg Extensions with 8 reps @ 190 lbs. A lil afraid of aggravating lower back atm.

Gym Day 147 ✅ Leg Day. Holy fuck it took me everything to finish this workout today. I might be sick. Addressed lower back issue: my feet were placed too high on hack squats + poor ankle mobility = lower back pain. I put my feet lower and am trying to "break" my ankles in under load now Destroyed rear delt flies with 3 sets of 10-12 reps @ 120 lbs. Gonna up weight next time Focused more on squeezing my glutes on back extensions on the way up and it feels much better

Gym Day 148 ✅ Arm Day. Back from being sick for a week. Made a new PR on the preacher curls. 2 sets of 8 reps @ 120 lbs

Gym Day 149 ✅ Push and Pull Day. Been slacking off recently so today was extremely difficult.

Gym Day 150 ✅ Leg Day. A fitting day for my 150th day. In the last 2 months I've had a deload followed by a back injury and an aggressive bout of norovirus. All my lifts have gone down a bit. Road to recovery and more PRs. Onward and upwards.

Gym Day 151 ✅ Arm Day. Forgot to post this. I cooked my triceps so nicely that day

Gym Day 152 ✅ Pull Day. I really need heavier dumbbells for my rows now. Slowly pushing through my PRs on my lat pulldowns.

Gym Day 153 ✅ Push Day. Made 3 new PRs. - Incline Press: 6 reps @ 245 lbs - Pec Deck: 9 reps @ 165 lbs - Rear Delt Flies: 8 reps @ 125 lbs Not too shabby after a month+ of suboptimal training

Gym Day 154 ✅ Arm Day. Bad hiatus from being busy and lazy. No more breaks. I managed to get a set of 10 reps of 40 lbs on hammer curls for the first time New PR on rear delt flies with 10 reps @ 125 lbs. Some guy praised my 235 lb tricep press as well which felt great

Gym Day 155 ✅ Leg Day last Thursday, forgot to post.

Gym Day 156 ✅ Push Day. Made a new PR on the incline bench with 5 reps @ 255 lbs
