30min Incline Treadmill Walk
Not a great day. Squats felt good and moved well but it was all downhill from there.
Bench felt way heavier than it should have.
PC was a complete shit show. I've somehow suddenly forgot how to do them. My rack for reps 2 and 3 at 180 was the position I would normally press from. Not good. I need to drop back to 175 next week and learn how to get under the bar better. And hopefully I'll have a little more help than usual considering I'll be in the presence of greatness (Wichita Falls).
I'm going to try to do LISS cardio on Wednesdays and Fridays. Seems it will be beneficial to start building my aerobic base back up. I've also changed my diet a bit. But having a weak/bad workout 1 week after instituting diet changes and not even losing any weight is not a great start to this new plan. Still too small a sample size to worry about anything though. Body probably just needs a little time to adjust to the new changes. I admit it did feel good to get the heart pumping again

Intensity Day
Squat: 360x5
Press: 170x5, 145x8
Was great lifting with everyone. Would have been cool if I was planning any PR's but still fun. I skipped PC because it was like 9:30 at night and the room was still pretty full.
Dave A. hit a 600lb squat and Austin B hit a 635 DL. Crazy.
And goes without saying the Coaches Conference was awesome overall. Really excited where the organization is headed. All the presentations were great. And it was fun to meet and interact with a bunch of Coaches I hadn't met yet!

Today was rough. Very rushed due to arriving late last night. Squats were creaky but moved well. Bench felt great and easy. DL felt heavy and I didn't have time for a back off set which was annoying. Overall I'm ok with it though

The usual. Nothing interesting about Recovery Day other than the fact that it seems I've instituted some LISS cardio and its actually stuck in the program

PC: 175x3
Felt awful going into this one. Knees and shins were cranky and was not squatting with any sort of precision during warm up sets. However the top set moved pretty well and I was happy about that. I've done 365x5 before but depth was questionable - not this time though. Hoping to get 370x5 next week.
Bench also pretty much flew up. 5th rep slowed a bit. So will have to decide whether to make a 2.5lb or 5lb jump next time. Probably 5.
PC has become a disaster. I've somehow had an uncharacteristically large amount of form slip. I didn't get to film it but I grinded the hell out of my shins and jammed the hell out of my wrist on all 3 reps of the top set. So I'll need another deload here and some video to try and figure this out. I may also consider switching to Power Snatch just to get more familiar with it and revisit the teaching method
