A Place to NOT do Whichever-the-hell-you-want Program!

Greetings!
This is not a log!
This is my spot!
And it will be easy to find at the end of the ends of the log sections, because I won't update it regularly, if at all, when there's nothing moving anywhere. Which is exactly the case.
I haven't kept an online log since ending my (NDTFP) SS log over on the other side.
By the end, I screwed and morphed and fucked with it so much that it was neither SS, nor HLM, nor 4-day Texas method run over 3 days/week. It was a mess that gradually moved and slopped along this progression up to around May 2017, so a little over a year since starting the first "A" workout. Then a further bout of something vaguely resembling 4-day Texas method whilst trying to remove extra gained fat until July 2017.
Since then, so around 2-3 months on, my productive gym time has been succesfully outsorced to: doing other stuff, being ill, going on holidays, perpetually trying to "LP back up" , approx. in this order.
As a result, I never summed it up and with the recent events happening over on the other side, it was a welcome discovery to find this place you made! Funny story, when I first saw the mention of ES, I was like oh, ok, just another big great board like bb.com or tnation or something where good strength training logs will be lost in the avalanche. Tried searching on Tapatalk....nothing! Went to google... Lots of bible stuff, then saw a small website with a very recently dated blog post....that didn't open! LOL, I thought, this is all bullshit and must be some joke I wasn't aware of.
Edit: here's the url, and it still doesn't open for me... https://exodusstrength.com/2017/09/07/first-blog-post/
Meanwhile, more and more people were leaving and/or getting nuked. Finally I ended up here (and having recently rewatched the Matrix trilogy, began to wonder, is this a bit like Zion? Please tell me it is, would be cool) and will at last summarise my progress during the LP and lack-of-progress ever since.
All stats are in kg (lbs specially for you), and meters.
Squat: high bar (FO!) with belt.
Bench: no belt, TnG
Deadlift: no belt or straps (yet!)
Press: belt and version 2.0
Chin-up: neutral grip and recording actual weight before the sets.
