Good workout, did a standard bi curl with the station being down, threw some pec flies into the mix because I haven't done them in a bit and the weights felt easier than they have, overall I give myself a B.

I believe that's my highest hack to date. Incline press im noticing a tightness where my delt meets my pec at heavier weight its either form or maybe lack of stretching?

Happy New Year everyone, I have almost reached one full year back in the gym consistently, I do not like making resolutions but goal setting is under development. I want to thank everyone for the tremendous support I receive, it has truly been helpful in keeping the fire stoked. I have settled back in to 180lbs, I still have some fat to lose and some muscle to regain but that will come with time, Rome wasn't built in a day and this fat didn't accumulate in a day either.

Warmup
Hack Squats 105lbs 4x5, 195x5
Incline Press 45lbs x10, 95 x10, 140x5, 145x3
Pec Dec 75x10, 110x8, 170x3
Seated Low Row 50x10, 100x8, 120x5

Lat Pulldowns 50x10,100x8, 150x3
Bi Hammer curls 10x10, 17.5x8, 22.5x5

Good lift day, varied my curl to spice things up a bit and because the EZ bars were taken by resolutioners, starting to wonder if legs should be done on a different day, in the rotation of lifts it typically falls midway toward end and I tend to feel pretty gassed by that point, too many large muscle groups together maybe? I feel like I could do more but feel globally more "spent" if that makes sense. Things to ponder. Weight 180.9, Step goal 8k.

Legs
Warm up
Leg Extensions 50x10,75x8, 100x5, 125x3
Hamstring Curls 50 3x10
Hack Squat 105x10, 195x5, 215x4 (did a fifth but it was not good)

Felt pretty good, have a little more oomph when legs are separated from the A/B circuit, still kind of feel like my quads get fatigued pretty quickly, could be in my head hard to say.
