Committing to hit legs this evening!Sunday 12/7:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Smith inclined barbell bench 70x23, 90x11 +80x5, 90x9 +80x5 +70x4, 70x15. Added 2 on set one, 3 net on set two, dropped 1 rep on three, added 1 rep on the bonus fourth set. So more or less back to where I was two sessions ago, though I think the tempo is a little better, with fewer pauses.  Which I'm pretty happy with, especially since the scale this morning said I dropped a couple of pounds again.  I've been trying to eat heavier and also including a little more junk food, but it's not sticking. </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Machine biceps curls 60x30, 70x26, 70x24, 70x20 +80x1 (whoops) +60x7 +50x10. Added 4 reps on opening set, 2 on sets two (getting up to 30 I will plan to increase weight again), added 1 rep on set three, dropped ~ a rep on set four. Still having to fight for the last reps. Smoothing the tempo a little bit, still having to pause on some.  </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Machine rear delt flies 82.5x18, 80x16, 77.5x17. Added 2 reps to set one and 1 to set three.  </li> </ul>Tonight I plan to do triceps extensions, lat pulldowns, machine overhead press, and hack squats or leg extensions, pushing for overload again, but after tonight I want the next week to be deload.  Do something like half to 3/4 weight/volume for 2-3 sessions, maybe skip one entirely, then go hard again the week after.</blockquote>
