Thanks Bob I'll keep on training hard. What you went through and came back from is very inspirational to me. I guess I'll keep doing what I've been doing. Thanks Bob.

Heres what I did today:

This is a belt-free workout

conventional deadlifts
185X10
225X8
275X4
315X2
365X1
405X1 (not good but not bad. I had diarrhea all yesterday and today so that made me kinda weak)

box squats
225X2
225X2
225X2
225X2
225X2
225X2
225X2
225X2
225X2
225X2
225X2
225X2
225X2(I did 13 sets of these with a 45 second pause in between sets. I was going to do 12 sets of these but I had a 3 or 4 minute break in between my 1st and 2nd set because I was spotting somebody)

stiff legged deadlifts
135X10
185X10
225X6
225X6
225X6

waist crunches
80X10
70X10
60X12
70X10
70X10
70X13

I did a few sets of russian twists and that was it. I had diarrhea twice during this workout so that sucked. I called my doctor and he said to drink just liquids and get plenty of rest. I feel kinda weak and tired too. My temperature was 99.2. I'm gonna take tomorrow off for sure. I probably shouldnt have lifted today.

Heres what I did today:

bench press
135X10 warmup
speed benching
195X3
195X3
195X3
195X3
195X3
195X3
195X3
195X3
195X3
195X3(I took about 45 seconds in between these)

rack lockouts 5th pin
135X5
225X5
315X5
405X5
495X5 ( I didnt like using the 5th pin up. I think it was too high. I was only moving it like an inch. I think I'll stick with the 3rd and 4th pins for rack lockouts)

JMs
25sX10
30sX8
30sX8
35sX6
35sX6
40sX6

lat pulldowns wide grip
100X10
120X10
140X10
160X8
180X6

barbell curls
100X10
110X10
110X10
110X10
110X10

I feel much better today. The diarrhea stopped and the tired, weak feeling went away.
This workout lasted 2 hours. I would have been done much earlier but one guy asked me for 6 spots and another guy asked me for 8 spots. It does get annoying after a while and can mess up your workout but I dont want to be known as the ******* who said "no" to somebody when they ask for a spot. Can anybody think of a way I can politely tell these guys I dont mind spotting them a few times but if theyre gonna ask me for 6 and 8 spots like today, it hurts my workout? I rarely ask for spots. Maybe twice a week. Peace. Thanks for reading.

Glad you're feeling better, Mike. Gut issues just suck.

RE: spotting. Just tell them, politely, that they'll have to wait for you to finish your sets of this exercise, that you're monitoring time / rest intervals, but you'll be happy to spot them when you get to a break point. Don't let others drag your lifting down; you owe it to yourself to be the best you can in your training.

Happy 4th!

Thanks Bob I feel fine now. Yeah it sucks being sick. Thanks for the advice on spots. Yeah I dont wanna be an arsehole but at the same time I dont want to be a pushover. I guess I gotta put my foot down. You have a great 4th too Bob. Peace brother.
