    10/31

    Squat 415x9,9,9
    Cg bench 275x8, 295x5

    --Strapped for time and tendonitis was bothering me. Squats felt strong, but I was too gassed for much else afterwards.

    11/4

    Deadlift 555x5 (5 lb PR, RPE 7, fucking pissed, more on that in a second)

    Snatch grip deadlift 445x5, 489x5, 499x5

    2 sec pause squat 365x5,5,5

    GHR bw+25 3x10

    --I've never had a day like today. Today was the first heavy pull day of this training cycle, and the plan was to hit a 5 lb PR for a set of 5. Well, I finished the 5th rep and it felt like a warmup. I should have done the first rep at 555, put the bar down, done another rep at 635 or so, then balled up and pulled 7. If I couldn't have hit it today, it would have been damn close. I might try 675 either next week or the week after. If 675 goes well, I might hit 7 a week or two after that. Got to take it on days it's there, and I didn't do that today.

    I know what you mean. For me leaving money on the table is a worse feeling than actually losing money. Applies to a lot of things...

    At least you can pretty much count on there being another day like this eventually.

    I hope, Steve. I can't remember ever having a day where my performance so drastically exceeded my expectations.

    You are on a nice roll, Kyle. Really impressive especially considering you are in the process of cutting weight.

    Thanks, John. The diet has made a huge difference. I'm probably consuming twice as much protein as I used to, without any of the useless fats and carbs.

    I've also had a confluence of good life events lately. I'm not working OT anymore (my diet and sleep were absolute shit from about March through August of this year when working OT), I got a new, less stressful position at work, and I just generally feel much more optimistic and healthy.

    I think all of this has helped me get my cortisol levels down, lose some bellyfat, and put on some muscle.
