Nice work Fred. I understand how you feel about doing back offs for more work. I always thought it was better to do more. Back offs, extra reps, and finishers. I've been reading that sometimes that is not a good idea. Even here I've read about " minimum efective dose".

Great job, your doing fine, * means PR?
Im doing 2x5 backoffs at 70 % of my squat workset, its working better then I thought it would do.
It also allows me to train my squat form. On the light day Ijust do 3x5@70% for the same reason, and its not that much stress, its fast and fun, easy to recover.

Jerry I need to do more work to keep the squat moving. I may try something like those backoff sets that Lars uses as they are working for him. His recommendation of 70% sounds doable after my top set(s) without killing me recovery wise.

Lars an * indicates a PR for the time period since I lost weight and had health problems in 2022. I use this as my main log so I include warm-up sets, recent PR's and some notes. Also I tend to be pretty lazy about writing in my notebook these days and usually catch up a few months later on paper.
