Hehe I know. I was gone for about two months I think. I am back now though. Things are busy certainly, but no busier then anyone else. Im gonna have to work my back into the members hearts 
Today was a great workout with my training partner.
Here is what we did:
Deadlift 4@275, 1@335, 4@295, 1@340*, 10@245
Superset with rest
Pullup 4@40, 1@60, 4@40,1@70, 10@BW
--I thought I had loaded 295 on the first deadlift set until I went for the second four repper and he pointed out that it was only 275. So that sucks. However 340 is a new PR in the deadlift. 45lbs more to go!!
Oh and he pulled a new max at 395!
Cable Row 3x10@135
DB Row 10@40, 10@45
Incline Curl 1x10@30, 1x8@30
Great workout. The goal is to take the deadlift up to 385lbs minimum by March 1st. No problem.

So some options for tomorrows workout...
30x2 Power Cleans or
30x2 Snatch or
Some Power Clean Push Press perhaps? Probably a few front squats. I dont really know. I just came off a week off after 2 weeks of high rep work. Im gonna goof off for awhile before winter break comes and my partner and I do some high frequency stuff.
Hes currently doing a bodypart split, with extra emphasis on the biceps lol.

So here is how it went down
Power Clean to Front Squat to Push Press
3@95 6x3@115 3x3@105
Im such a wuss when it comes to lifting overhead.
I then decided to something different so I did this superset
Supine Row
1x15, 1x11, 1x8
Pushup with hands elevated
1x15, 1x12, 1x10
Then I moved on to
Back Extension
3x10@45
Hanging Knee Raise
4x10@12lb med ball
Then to finish
Neutral Grip Pullup
7,5
Power Clean to Front Squat to Push Press
3@95 6x3@115 3x3@105

DB Push Press
3x10@45
Pushup on Med balls
2x10
Ball Crunch with Med ball throw (without the actual throw)
2x10@15
Feet Elevated Pushup
10
Decline Situp
10@10
Solidified how much I really hate squats.
I have a large cinabun cake (or something) sitting on my table. Should I eat it? Naah.

cinnabon's are awesome - it's be criminal to throw it out...
all that cinnammonny gooeey goodness...
it's only like 5,467,357,346 calories.. per bite...
you'll work it off eventually..

eventually..My mother in law says which I knew would happen, "Tony there is cinabon here."
I say as usual, "No thanks."
As usual she, "Why not?" I could be eating something and she would still annoyingly ask me this.
I said, "Because I dont want any and its not good for me."
I then went to the Cinnabon website where they offer no nutritional info for their products, which is not on the box either. Did a search and found each Classic is 730 calories, with 114g carbs. I told this to my wife and her and she (MIL) says "oh really! I guess I wont be getting those again."
Just seen the movie Hitman, it was really good.

So I measured out a 1/2 cup of raisin bran, no freaking way that will do any positive for hunger. I am moving the breakfast to two eggs with one piece of toast. Thats 240 calories and should provide a much better anti hunger agent.

My 6 lb kitty cat can eat more than that... jeeez - you starting the teenage girl anorexic diet? Say it with me, son, food is good...

Haha what are you, Yoda?
No the V Diet is essentially a liquid diet. I want to eat one meal per day, namely breakfast, so I wanted to see my options. Raisin Bran isnt one of them. At 1400-1700 calories a day, I cant waste 200 on such a little portion.
Did I miss why you're doing this diet?
Oh if only i were as cute and smart as yoda is...

For the challenge. Its going to be extremely tough and a real test of willpower and dedication.
Its a 28 day diet, but I dont think it really matters. I am going to do it for about 3 weeks while I am out of school. The creator ate one meal per week, but I am going to eat one per day. Two eggs and toast should help alot IMO.

So here is the food plan for the next 3 weeks. This starts tomorrow with breakfast each day and 1 additional meal per week.
I went and bought a second shaker cup yesterday and picked up my whey and casein. I am sure I will need another casein tub, but my buddy said V Shoppe only gets them 1 at a time. At $25*25% off I can wait it out.
