Stronglifts 5x5 Progress - Week 8

A little bit of new formatting today.  For the lifts, it will be  current lift (max lift).

Weight: 164lbs.  up 2 lbs.
Squats: 180 (180).  Spent 3 work-outs doing this weight.  Today I finally hit it, felt really good about it.  Only up 5 lbs since last week.
Bench: 130 (130).  Up 5lbs, really energizing to finally see bench is going up.
Overhead Press: 90 (90).  With the increase in bench, I expected OHP to go up as well.  Up 5lbs.
Pendlay Rows: 105 (115).  Lowered this last week, working way back up.
Deadlift: 245 (245).  Seriously, chalk makes a difference.  My grip is pretty weak, I chalked up and my hands were screaming in pain, insane grip.  I noticed an increase using leg power instead of compensating with trying to lift with arms/shoulders.  Up 5lbs, again working way back up, previously best was 240, and attempts at 250.

I was really feeling demotivated these past few work-outs because almost all lifts were stalling but today I saw increases in all lifts performed today.  That one good work-out makes it all worthwhile.

I will be running Stronglifts for 4 months, I'm currently 2 months in and have seen significant gains in a lot of areas.  Mainly weight, I started out at around 154lbs (10lbs increase), squats was at 115lbs  (65lbs increase) and deadlifts but not too sure exactly where I left off from.
