    Monday 3/2/20
    Press 247.5x3
    Bench 302.5x5x3

    Tuesday 3/3/20
    Squat 525x2x2
    Press 160x5x3 seated

    Thursday 3/5/20
    Bench 345x2 (failed 3)
    Press 220x5x3
    Curls

    Friday 3/6/20
    Squat 465x5, 445x5x2
    Halting DL 445x8

    Taped my squats on Tuesday and found 2 problems:
    -going too deep
    -descending too fast
    Made my reps unnecessarily hard, due to the extra depth, and losing a degree of control at the bottom. Worked on slowing descent and hitting just correct depth on Friday, and it already feels much better.

    Rack Pull 600x3

    Iffy week. Press and Bench volume are grinding, time to change those up a bit. It's been a good run.
    Think I'll keep the weight up on bench, move onto 307.5x3x5 and go up 2.5/wk from there.
    As for press, I'll start doing a top set of 5 with two back-off sets.
    Very happy with a nice squat PR, 530x3

    Inslee statement on statewide shutdown of restaurants, bars and limits on size of gatherings expanded | Governor Jay Inslee

    Statewide shutdown of all recreation facilities too.

    And I had just signed up for the Portland strengthlifting meet in June. I'm not sure how long this will last, but it sucks bad that I can't put my work in and get closer to my 600lb squat goal. Maybe I'll lose a month of training? Who knows. Just have to ride this out I guess.

    And it's spring break here too. I would have had the gym all to myself. Now it's going to be a VERY slow week.

    Tuesday 4/7/20

    Deadlift 315x3, 405x2, 455x2, 500x3
    Bench 275x3, CGB 225x12
    Seated Press 185x0 (sad panda), 135x5,5,7

    Friend of mine got his hands on an Ohio Power Bar, a Bench, and 10x45lb plates and 2x25lb plates.
    Have to be slow on eccentric with deads, don't want to damage the floor.
    Bench is possible if three of us are there; we do handoffs with lots of communication.
    Ceiling too short to press (Dang), seated press it is.

    Felt good to lift something again.
