Unfortunately I did not get to do my training today because I was working on my flooded house. On another note I am going to have to change my training a tad because I just learned that I will be playing baseball this year starting next month. The Texas Method is a good program but it isnt going to jive with baseball so im thinking I will do a HLM with possibly only 2 lifting sessions some weeks. Template will be as follows....
day 1
squat heavy 80x5x4,85x3x4,90x5x1
bench heavy
chins
day 2
squat light 60%x5x3
press heavy
power cleans
upper assistance(dips)
day 3
squat medium 70%5x3
deadlift keep same rotation im doing
press medium
DB press for 2-3 sets and probably some pullups for max reps

I see you changed your program from Texas Method to HLM. That was a good move for baseball season. I recently had a discovery or maybe more accurately a brain fart about the two programs. They can easily morph into one another as needed. The Texas Method is essentially Heavy/Light/Heavy. That last heavy day can turn into a light or medium day as needed based on other activity. For example I am doing a 4 day Texas Method split and this weeks intensity for legs is turning into a light day to support recovery from activities that went overboard. So it will be Heavy/Light instead of Heavy/Heavy. Next week my program will be back on track.
For the standard 3 day program Texas Method is H/L/H but can be changed to H/L/M or even H/L/L if needed to support recovery during game season without changes to the program or exercise selection. It was an AH Ha moment.

Yea that was my thinking. I don't know how much I will progress in season but it's probably better to at least I act like I'm going to.

Making progress during the season isn't nearly as important as not detraining/regressing is. The extra strength helps play the sport more effectively. If you can play without losing you are good. Heavy training can resume later from where you left off.
