Dead 250 3x5
Bench 210 3x5
Press 125 3x5
Squat still making progress. Dead, injured my lat doing chins and trying to get it to heal. Second stall on bench and second stall on Press. Looking into going into the TM. I have already dropped Wed squats to 80% to keep from feeling so beat up. Ibuprofen is a daily event.
Part of getting into shape was to play with my boys but I just can't seem to loosen up enough to run. They could never beat me in a foot race before I started lifting heavy.
I need advice on how to get the kinks out to feel "loose" again.
