Adductor Machine

Set No.WeightNumber of Reps
Set 150 lbs25 reps
Set 250 lbs25 reps

Not a typo on the third set. A was just so focused on the exercise that I had forgotten that I surpassed 25 reps.

Front Squat

Set No.WeightNumber of Reps
Set 145 lbs15 reps
Set 245 lbs15 reps
Set 345 lbs15 reps

Back Squat

Set No.WeightNumber of Reps
Set 150 lbs6 reps
Set 280 lbs6 reps
Set 3105 lbs6 reps
Set 4130 lbs6 reps
Set 5155 lbs6 reps

The six reps felt good, I think I'll be good for 4x7 in two weeks time.

Leg Curl

Set No.WeightNumber of Reps
Set 160 lbs25 reps
Set 260 lbs25 reps
Set 360 lbs25 reps

Barbell Deadlift

Set No.WeightNumber of Reps
Set 1160 lbs15 reps
Set 2160 lbs15 reps
Set 3160 lbs15 reps

I'm glad that I was able to get 15 reps done in each set, so in two weeks time, I'll be doing this at 165 lbs instead of 160 lbs. I'm now 5 lbs closer to reaching my goal of 15 reps at 260 lbs within the next year.

Fat Gripz Deadlift

Set No.WeightNumber of Reps
Set 195 lbs3 reps
Set 295 lbs3 reps
Set 395 lbs4 reps

I actually at to use straps for this because without straps I was only able to do 1 rep. Next week I'm probably going to try the fat gripz deadlift at 65 lbs instead and see what happens. Good grip workout though.

Close-Grip Deadlift

Set No.WeightNumber of Reps
Set 155 lbs15 reps
Set 255 lbs15 reps
Set 355 lbs15 reps

Zercher Squat

Set 350 lbs20 reps

Calf Raises

Set No.WeightNumber of Reps
Set 1135 lbs11 reps
Set 2135 lbs4 reps
Set 3135 lbs10 reps

Overall I'm pretty happy with the work that I did during the workout. I ended up moving 43445 lbs in total volume during the workout which is my third best workout this month in terms of volume. For April my total volume actually summed to 276972 lbs which is surprisingly better than January even though I took a two week hiatus from weightlifting to focus on my school exams. I actually really happy with where my deadlift is going. I started doing my 3 sets of 15 at 110 lbs at the beginning of 2018, and now two months later I've accomplished the same task at 160 lbs which is actually good improvement.

You have a minor grammatical mistake in the following sentence:

For April my total volume actually summed to 276972 lbs which is surprisingly better then January even though I took a two week hiatus from weightlifting to focus on my school exams.
It should be better than instead of better then.
