3-board: 195x3
215x1
225x1
235xfail
These were done with much better technique. I am starting to get the hang of things. Hillary even said that my 225 looked good. Gasp! I am still losing tightness at the bottom, which can be fixed by stronger lats. If I build up my lats and upper back, I should be able to bench much more.
DB Bench (palms in): 60x5
75x5, 5
80x5, 5
T-bar Row (these are done with minimal leg drive): 2plates +25 x 10
3x10, 10
3+25 x10, 10
Rear Delt Raises: 30x10/10
35x10/10, 10/10
Ted told me to not dick around on the rear delt stuff, and really try and push the weight. He said that a lot of the guys will go up to the 115's for these.
Today I met more of the guys there, including George. George came to Diablo at 225lbs. After one summer, he left Diablo at 270lbs. 55lbs gained. His advice was eat all the time, drink protein shakes when you aren't eating solid food, and don't fail. Ted apparently comes up with hellish punishments for failure.

115's for rear delts?!??!? Or was he talking about another exercise?
Also, what does George look like and how much did his #s go up for gaining 55 lbs.
yes 115's for rear delts. crazy.
As for George, he wasn't super-bloated or anything. Sort of Terence-like except more jacked. Ted said that his squat jumped from 395 to his recent best of 804 (after 1.5 years of Diablo training). Yes, multi-ply but still a bigass jump.
