Day 3, week 1
Deadlifts - Tried putting on some loose knee sleeves for deadlifts. Seemed to help as I was able to lift with no knee pain which I couldn't do last week. Maybe that's what 60 year old knees need?
Bar-10
155-5
265-3
265-3
420-3,3,3, These went well and will be a good starting point

Rack pulls from a couple inches below the knees
155-5
265-5
175-3
420-5,5,5, Kept the same weight as the previous regular deadlifts. Don't want to push things just yet

SSB tempo squats - 3 seconds descent, then up fast
Bar-5
160-5
270-5,5,5, Kept these light too as my knee still doesn't feel stable. They went easy though so will add 10 pounds for next week.

Back extensions - 15-8,8,8, held a dumbbell, SS'd with
Leg curls - 115-8,8,8, Last set/last rep was 100% effort

W1 : D4
Low bar squat - L knee feels not too bad today
Bar-10
155-5
265-3
375-1
420-2 - A little too heavy
385-3,3, - wanted to leave 2-3 reps in the tank as per the programming. L leg still quite a bit weaker than right

Leg press
140-6
320-6
370-6,6,6, - Tried to push extra hard with my left leg

Spoto Bench
Bar-12
155-5
242-5,5,5, will add 10lbs + to next week felt light

Single leg leg press -
sled-6,6,
50-6,6,6, Seemed easy with my right leg, quite hard with my left. Hopefully this will help bring my left leg up to speed over the next few weeks

Cable Face pulls and cable front raises super setted these

Seated calf raises - Mitch hooper said these were good for knee rehab. Figured I could do these on my leg ext machine and I could quite well buy setting a bench in front of the machine. Set a 3" block for full range of motion.
115-15,20,20, - will definitely do more of these.
