 Did a push-up and chin-up non-stop blitz workout the other night after a late work. Just went non-stop with the aim of 100 reps total across 10 sets of 10. I underestimated my push-up ability which has always sucked and went up to 12 sets when I realized how easy this was for the push-ups. Had to switch to doing lat pull-downs at some point instead of chins (I had already done weighted chins earlier in the day). Was able to achieve failure at the end of the 12th set. Lats and chest were sore the following days.

Last night:

Squats
385 x 5
425 x 5
475 x 5

Strip-sets
405 x 5
315 x 10
225 x 10
135 x 10
45 x 10 (front squats)

Walking back the 475 was brutal for some reason. My quads were just worn out and I had to take tiny baby steps to make it back to my stands. Very happy though. I'm liking the variety between SSB and barbell squat days in a short period.

That was a cheat day, I basically kept eating the entire day including at the office. Literally brought a quart of milk with me and was chugging out of it while eating cinnamon rolls, it was a gross sight to behold. Dinner was ramen, veggies, a burrito, milk, and more cinnamon rolls. Woke up with my stomach pissed at me, which means it should be a good bench press day. My chest is still sore from the push-ups so I'll keep my expectations in check.
