Did just a bit of erector rolling, didn't roll or prep anything else really.
Squats
45x5x2, 135x5, 195x3, 255x2, 305x1, 355x5x3
I expected these to be EASY, and while they weren't, they also were far from hard. I'll make a game time call based on how my warmups feel whether to do 360 or jump to 365 next squat workout.
Also, the spot on my right elbow that was killing me leading up to the meet started hurting again on Sunday during softball whenever I was at bat. I was super worried about this re: low bar squats, but everything today went smooth without a twinge.
Rack Pulls
First time doing these, after first time doing Haltings last week. Because of my experience with the haltings, I went conservative, and it ended up being too easy but that's ok. I can always add more weight in future weeks. I also set the bar up on blocks probably an inch or two too high, but was too much trouble and work to take the bar down, change the blocks, and pick it back up again all on my own. So I started from just below the kneecap, instead of a couple inches below - which also contributed to it being easier than expected. In both cases, now I know.
135x5, 225x3, 315x1, 405x1, 475x5 - easy
Started doing some sprints when my soleus (99% sure) tweaked, and I called it quits immediately. I've done this once or twice before, and it's annoying as hell, but I've learned that if I don't act stubborn and keep running, it heals and works itself out in a week or less - so even though I desperately want to ramp up my conditioning, I"m gonna be smart instead of stupid, and wait it out.
Cool incident: a couple guys came up to me after seeing me squat 355x5 (which isn't much weight, even for me, and I'm not particularly strong) and started asking me what I was doing. After telling them I'm an avid fan of Rippetoe and his work, I got blank stares. I said "STARTING STRENGTH?!?" and they lit up - "Oh ya, we're doing that too!" They were about my height and way too skinny (170ish at about 6' tall), but one had decent #s, 275x5x3 in the squat. I watched a few and they were an inch high but otherwise decent. Hopefully gonna lift with them on Friday and help them some.
The more people I meet who are into this stuff - and it's not common, but becoming more and more common at commercial gyms - the better mood I tend to be in. And the better chance I will meet someone who can help me, directly or indirectly, get a real gym in Manhattan going.
