“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” – Theodore Roosevelt

random:
so its the end of my first two 531 cycles today. deload week is coming. anyway. here are some thoughts.

probably gonna switch the military press out for some other movement. weird shoulder keeps clicking on the descent plus its really not going anywhere. klokov presses maybe. hmm. 

for the next two cycles, gonna hold back on the top sets for squats and benches and push the jokers instead to get used to handling heavy shit cuz i think thats what i suck at. deadlifts will be the same except for my 1+ week where i'll shoot for a max. pretty satisfied with the accessory work for now. but should refine the fsl sets cuz i cant seem to hit the targets after going for the top sets and jokers. also add in some conditioning work so i dont become a fat lump of lard.

current lifts are: squat 190kg/bench 117.5kg/deadlift 240kg. just trying to push my estimated maxes up every training for now without stressing myself out with a specific goal, but a 210/125/260 by the end of the year would be nice. okay thats all for now.
