    Notes: I'm losing some of that leanness I worked so diligently to achieve; I'll scale back calories marginally but trade some fat grams for fibrous carbs and protein. Volume days are now 3,100, intensity days are now 2,700, and non training days are 2,600 calories for a weekly average of 2,800 calories per day. If performance drops off the I'll add a bit back to the training days but keep the non lifting days unchanged.

    P.S. I was out until 0300 this morning because a contractor severed the underground transmission to the main gate traffic lights. I was tired, likely over caffeinated and very irritable with my squat performance. Tried the cue "chest between feet" to sit back. It worked up until 405 and 435. Then the whip of the bar kept throwing me off balance as my hips broke the descent

    Weight: 212.5lbs, Time: 1000 (2:10)
    Calories: 3,100

    Warmup:
    Incline sit-up 2x15
    Back raise 2x10
    RDL barx5

    Power Clean: 135x5, 185x3, 205x3, 225x3, 245x3, 265x2

    Closegrip Bench 205x8, 220x8, 235x7/8, slingshot 215x11,10

    Incline sit-up 2x15
    Back raise 2x10

    Short race pace run: 0.5mi at 9.3mph

    Notes: I switched to the Heavy-Light-Medium system that Bill Starr wrote so much about. I figured it would allow me to train hard but remain fresh for conditioning. I'm also rebuilding my squat to incorporate my hips more effectively. I'm also trying to reduce my arch in the bench press but keep my chest high - thoracic mobility will need to improve. Instead of pulling heavy today, I subbed cleans to 1. Get a data point for medium day later this week; and 2. Take a break as I pulled heavy at a deficit on Friday. Close grips were tough after volume bench; I scaled back the percentages from 60-70-80% to 60-65-75% and added 10 pounds to the first set's load for the slingshot back-off sets. Video:

    Monday continued

    The treadmill was making my back hurt and bouncing my tits too much. Continued my run outside at 1130: 3.25 mi 25-30minutes. Nice and easy

    Short Recovery Run: 1.55 mi @6mph (10-min/mi pace)

    Barbell Curl 38lbs x101 (50-10-10-10-10-11)

    Note: I'll be pushing next week's schedule up by one day to account for the moving company on Thursday. The high rep curls are helping keep the blood flowing and my elbow is gradually improving. It still takes awhile to warm it up prior to squatting however. Fortunately it does not bother my while pressing.
