Thursday, 7/4/19

Press
45x2x5
65x1x5
85x1x3
100x3x5

Felt on the tough side but I didn't feel as awkard doing these.

Deadlft
135x2x5
150x1x5
200x1x3
250x1x2
300x1x5

Did these with a DOH grip. Felt a tad off balance but my bar speed was frighteningly fast.

Tuesday, 7/9/19

Squat
45x2x5
125x1x5
185x1x3
240x1x2
285x3x4

ITB tightness and quad pain on my first set; some release techniques brought it under control. Squatting at home for the first time in a while likely didn't help.

Bench Press
45x2x5
65x1x5
85x1x3
105x1x3
115x1x3
135x3x5

Still felt weak on my left side but its getting better. Did these beltless.

185x1x3

Squat
45x2x5
125x1x5
185x1x3
240x1x2
285x3x5

Gave blood the day before but it didn't seem to faze me much (for one thing, I only gave a standard pint instead of the double red cell donations that I had done the last few times). Also had a bit of a warmup beforehand; the guy helping run the gym had me try my hand at pulling a large tire with a rope. Did it fairly well.

Bench Press
45x2x5
62.5x1x5
90x1x3
120x1x2
140x3x5

Wore my belt this time. Felt a tad weak on my left side but did my reps with little trouble.

67.5x1x5
