    Not very peppy tonight, so the pclns were poor. But I did ok on the top set of deads.

    Tuesday 2/3/2016

    pin squats: 3x5x275

    bench:
    5x220
    5x251
    4x285 (barely missed)
    3x5x268

    Not too bad, but I was really close to making the top set, which is annoying. Another inch higher and it probably would have gone up.

    Thursday 2/4/2016

    squats:
    5x275
    5x315
    7x355 (match p.r.)
    3x5x335

    rdl: 2x8x305

    Squats finally back where they should be after the Xmas break. It took a big effort, but I got the 7 at 355 again. And I got my new Adipowers, which are working great.

    power-clean:
    3x135
    3x155
    3x175
    1x185
    1x195
    1x205
    1x210 (p.r.)

    deadlift:
    3x345
    3x395
    3x450 (rep p.r.)

    rows: 2x8x285

    My form was better than usual on the power-cleans. I focused on the 3rd pull and racking the bar with a bit of flex in my knees. Since that went well I also bumped the top triple on the deadlift for a p.r. A good night.

    Thursday 2/11/2016

    pin squats: 3x3x295

    bench:
    3x235 (should be 231)
    3x268 (should be 264)
    2x297 (barely missed the 3rd)
    3x5x268 (hard)

    I calculated all of the sub-maximal sets off of a 1rm of 335 instead of 330, trying to push the volume up a bit. This was better than last cycle, but not quite there. All of my accessories are aimed at pushing my deadlift right now, so it isn't surprising that progress on the bench has slowed.

    Sunday 2/14/2016

    squat:
    3x295
    3x335
    5x380 (p.r.)
    3x5x335

    rdl: 2x8x305

    It's a p.r. with an asterisk: it's cold out, so we went to the school gym instead of working out in the shed.

    Thursday 2/18/2016

    power-clean:
    3x135
    3x155
    3x175
    1x185
    1x195
    1x205
    0x210

    deadlift:
    5x370
    3x420
    1x470
    0x485 (just past the knees again)
    4x370 (matched grip gave out on 5th rep)

    rows: 2x8x285

    No great surprise that I missed the p.r. attempt again, since the weights this cycle were the same as last, but as of now I'll start adding a 1st-set-last to deadlift day in order to get a bit more volume into my routine.

    7 J-Pips @ 20:240s

    Sunday 2/21/2016

    pin squats: 3x1x315

    bench:
    5x250
    3x281
    1x315
    1x325 (Joker set p.r.)
    2x5x268

    I was surprised. I didn't expect to go for the p.r. tonight. The tricycle of death on Saturday clearly didn't impede my recovery.
