Ok... so 8/20 a friend came into town, this wasn't going to stop me from working out, but a collision of other events managed to... went out and had a great time without working out, no big deal.
8/23, 8/25 and 8/27 we worked out, I have the notes out in the garage on the whiteboard, but all said and done this week saw a new record for my squats and deadlift... I managed to match my bench press but not surpass it, no real suprise there since we've been working our core and legs
Damn, I'm a slacker.
But, It's not slacking on the actual working out parts!
8/11
Squats 5×5 (low weights)
Bench Press find 1RM
Inverted Rows 5×5
Pushups 3xF
Planks 3xF
8/13
Slosh Tube Zercher Squats
Overhead Press - Find 1RMax - Replaced this with Slosh Tube overhead press as we had a shortage of participants and didn't have enough manpower to spot safely.
Slosh Tube Zercher Walk
Plank Holds 8x30 Seconds
Squats 5X5 - 135 155 205 225 255x1
Once again I broke my record... had to buy a new set of weights to get there!
Deadlifts 5X5 - 115 115 165 185 205
Shrugs 5X5 - @ 25lbs
Plank to Push Up 3X10... oh, the pain.
Side Lifts 4X10 @ 25lbs.
A video of the 225 lifts, I wanted to make sure my form was OK to push higher. I think it's good, but anyone with feedback is appreciated.
Modified from http://www.thecellarfitness.com's routine, but still a damn fine workout.

Slosh Tube Overhead Press 5x5
Pushups, 3 sets to fail. 2, 1, 1
TABATA Plank Hold... I honestly thought this would be easy... but FFS not easy!
TABATA Burpees... oh, the pain.
1 mile bike ride.
We just knocked out the fastest lower body A I've done in a while, of course, having only 1 other person show up speeds things up!
I warmed up with 20-30 minutes of machete swings... (chopping up the crap I pulled out from over the garage...) and then we did...
