Pretty good session. Schedule is messed up this week because of the snow. I had to squeeze this in yesterday in between teaching and working at the PT office. Would have like to do another back-off set on squats if I had the time.
Here is a video of my top squat set with 405 and my last set of cleans with 235:

Thanks, Karl. On 8s I basically try to bang out the first four reps as quickly as I can, then 5 and 6, and rest a bit before the last two. No matter how you do them, they most definitely suck. Although I would be a very happy guy if I got my squat weight up anywhere near what you are doing for your sets of 8!

Okay session. I had to squeeze this in between my afternoon and evening classes. Really happy with how 192 felt, but died quickly on the back-offs. I needed to take more rest.
David A did 8,6,7 on his presses and you do 8,7,6...I wish you did 8,6,7 so I could 5309 you too. Good volume there on the presses and chins. You must have healthy shoulders ; )
Thanks, Wolf.

Pretty good session today. Squeezed this in between my afternoon and evening classes in about 50min. The p. cleans felt like conditioning.
HA! I don't think my numbers are anything all that impressive, Adam, but I appreciate the kind words. Happy to see your lifting going so well again.
