605x5!!!!

605x5!!!!

We both know it was only because I used straps lol

11/1
Squat: 405x3x3
Press: 225x3@8, 235x3@9, 245x2@10, 185x8
Lat Pull Downs: 3 sets of 6-12 reps

notes: Squats were rough. Was planning for some where around 475 for a top set. Decided it was a bad idea. Press was good. Missed an attempted 3rd rep with 245 after the second got slightly out in front.

11/3
Halting Deadlifts: 315x8, 365x8, 405x8
Close Grip: 205x8, 225x8, 240x8

notes: I forgot how out of breath I get with haltings. I'm sure these are going to jump up real quick over the next few weeks.

11/4
Tempo Squat (3-0-3): 225x8, 255x8, 275x8
Strict Press: 170x8,8,7

notes: Knee felt much better today. Erectors got a mega pump during tempo squats. Did not rest long enough on presses and ran out of gas on the last set.

Bench: 260x4, 280x4@7, 300x4@8
BB Curls: 95x15, 115x8, 125x6

notes: Happy with press. I feel like it is on the rise. Deadlift is still in recovery mode from last week.

4/1

Deadlift: 430x7x3
Knee rehab stuff

notes: This was the first time in about a year I squatted 500 lbs. Both knees are a little cranky but no sharp pain in the left which is a huge win! I may alternate a moderately heavy single every other week instead of weekly.

Good to see you posting again, Nick. Congrats on the 500 pound squat. It has been a long road back!

4/8/19
Squat: 405x4, 465x2@7, 405x4x5
Deadlift: 435x7x3

notes: I think doing a heavyish single every other week is a good idea going forward. Knees felt great during and after this session.
