So guys, my max outs are coming up very soon, what should I do in the week coming up in order to insure I'll be able to hit 5 more pounds than the last 9 weeks?
Eat. High protein and fat, easy on carbs.

Only healthy fat. Like natural peanut butter , almomds.. avacodo's. Eating healthy fat is super imporant.

HELL no. haha.
I make it a point not to use machines. Just freeweights and body weight exercises.
And eating healthy fat was implied. I should have been more clear.

I'm pretty noisy on squats and deadlifts, moderate on press, and pretty tame on bench press.

I'm pretty silent when I do bench press and squats, even to the point where people are like: DUDE!!!! BREATHE!!!!!! XD
When I do power cleans though, I'm a little loud... on the last rep of the last set (usually 5th rep of the 3rd set) I yell out something random just to be funny.

I make more noise when I succeed in lifting as opposed to too much weight.
It's definitely not because it's too heavy.

Got back to training today after a cold. Practiced my clean and jerk, did some power snatching, and some moderate squats. Back to linear progression on Monday.
Think I'll start including Olympic lifts in my routine, now that I have access to bumper plates.

Which supplements (if any) does everyone take? Right now, I take whey and fish oil. I still need to throw a multi-vitamin in there.

I've changed my workout drastically. I am now focusing on mostly Calisthenics and Swimming. I've started preparing for Navy SEAL selection for when I go in. Extremely excite to have this opportunity.

I work out 5 days a week. I do both upper body and lower body work outs. I also do a good bit of cardio daily. I started doing all of this a few months ago.

The best of luck with SEALs training, Olias.
Guys, I don't mean to bother you, but is it possible for you to post a sample workout routine on here for someone that's trying to lose weight. I know I'm probably wasting your time, but I'm tired of just showing up to the gym and doing random workouts.
I can only go to the gym 3 times a week and I don't have access to bumper plates so I can't do Olympic lifts.

Jorge, I posted my routine a couple posts back. Just integrate different numbers for yourself.
This little routine has definitely worked for me.

I had a bit of an accident today on the weights. I'm not hurt, though my right hand and stomach are a little sore. I won't feel anything tomorrow though.
I had a spotter, a different girl than usual. She spotted me last time and did just fine.
This time, I think she was cocky and just used one hand to spot me. I was pushing 295lbs on the bench. It was my 2nd set, and she started helping me at rep 7, and did fine until rep 9.
I was pushing, she was pulling one handed.... it stopped mid way, and it came back down slowly. (because I was pushing as hard as I could)
She gave me this "o..... k......." look, and said "Here, lets get this off of you. She used both hands to pull this time, and I pushed, but I was out of juice. Empty. Dry. No more power.
It went up half way, and came back down.
She stood back and I started to roll the weight down. Ow. I got to lower chest and tipped it to one side. CRASH!
I wasn't squished at least, but I was under one side of the weights - I pushed to get them off of me, but I was out of juice. Empty. Dry. No more power.
She and I both pushed on the one side, and I ninja tuck n' rolled off the bench.
I had a guy spot me for my 3rd set.

Deadlifted 275 today. Pretty light, but considering I havent deadlifted in 2 months, its not terrible. My grip gave out before my legs and back did though. I need to get my hands calloused up again.
