Squats:
390x1
Even warming-up with bodyweight my legs felt like lead. Been using my standing desk a lot in addition to walking a ton so I'm almost always on my feet during the days. Time for a deload, and maybe some laziness, haha.
Training at a new gym and it's pretty good. Owned by an actual IFBB pro. I can't stand the j-hooks in the rack, though. It's one attachment of 4 upward hooks and I can't lockout with the bar on my back fully until I finish walking out completely. However, it's quaint, quiet, has a trap bar (and I imagine I'd be able to bring my own bars), a heavy bag area, and $25 a month. Bumper plates as well.

Bench press:
230 x 5
265 x 5
300 x 5
> Strength is down. I wonder if infrequency, while non-consequential for a session or two, is starting to bite after too many times. That, or I'm losing weight from walking so much. Diet has been great, but I drink no milk except for breakfast before training now, in contrast to before.
Incline bench:
190 x 3 x 10
Various rows, push-ups, skullcrushers, and curls
Trained at 24 Hour. This one has no power rack, just squat racks. Don't like using the low benches to bench press.

Been doing a good deal of walking between my time hiking with Stephanie and taking advantage of our season passes to Six Flags.
Deadlifts:
335 x 5
390 x 5
440 x 4, 5
> Belt was too tight at first and my back hurt on the first set of 440. Loosening it up a notch actually felt a little too slack but my back felt better.
Squats:
317 x 3 x 10
Deadlifts:
230 x 25
GHR:

Hike today up where I used to go here by my house. Went uphill for about 45 minutes at a pretty brisk pace before turning around. Legs are sore from squats but it wasn't a killer trek or anything, despite the fact that I used to be sucking air on this very same spot when I'd go with George years ago.

Squats:
320 x 3
365 x 3
410 x 3
> Last time I failed the minimum and got 2, so I repeated the day and plan on doing the same numbers next cycle. A lack of volume through accessory work has seemed to hurt my squat performance bad but I'm on the upswing.
315 x 3 x 10
> The cure for what ails.
Deadlifts:
225 x 25

First session since the move. I've lost 5 lbs but not as much strength as I thought I would have. I probably didn't take into account all the physical labor I did packing, despite personal stress and poor diet.
Went to 24 Hour with my friend Stephanie, which I'm probably going to get a membership to again.
Overhead press:
170 x 5
195 x 3
215 x 3
135 x 10, 10, 10, 10, 10
Chin-ups:
10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10
Incline skullcrushers:
45s x 10
Spider curls:
50s x 3 x 10
Rear-delts
