flat db press 80 x 5 >> 65 x 10
dumbbell shoulder press 70 x 6 >> 60 x 5
deadlift 295 x 8 >> 275 x 3
hoping to get back quick, question is does having carbs in the day help with strength in your workout or just energy levels? |
I'm in the same situation as you. Took a week off, and didn't care for my nutrition. First day back today, and decided to see where my big 3's were at.
Deadlift: From 335lb, to failing 315lb
Bench Press: Went from 185 for 10 to 185 for 7
Squats - Didn't really evaluate, but struggled squatting 275lb when I usually wouldn't.
