The pull at 465 was RPE 10. That sucker came up slow, and I had to take a knee afterward.

4DIP: Assigned Running
2 Mile Run: 18:00
So, I'm a lot slower than I used to be. I'm also a lot older than I used to be. I'm also 40lbs heavier than I used to be, back in the early Army days. I'm just glad for this time. Chaplain needs a 21:00 2-mile. I was able to do an 18m with my quads and hips barking from RPE-10 deadlift yesterday. That makes me confident that on test-day, I can do the other 5 required events and feel no worse-off at my 2MR than I did today.
4DIP: W3D1
Bench: 280x5x4
Press: 190x3x4
No drama. Got it done on lunch break.
4DIP: W3D2
Squat: 330x5, 5, 5, 2
Left quad started moaning on the first warmup sets. I nursed it all the way through to working sets but couldn't complete last set. I could not convince my mind to do another squat on that last set.
Deadlift: 135x2
Quad biz hurts.
4DIP: W3D3
Bench: 290x3x4
Press: 175x5x4
Putting in work.
4DIP, W3D4:
Squat: 225x1, 315x1, 345x0, 275x1, 225x1
Just trying to find a pain-free load. 225 Seems to be it.
Deadlift: 450x1, 385x5
4DIP, Prescribed Run
2 miles: 19:16
Intentionally slow but still a pass for me.
4DIP, W4D1
Bench: 285x5x4
Press: 195x3x4
At least my upper-body movements are still going well.
4DIP, W4D2
Ultra SLOW Tempo Squat: 225x3x4
Okay, this is supposed to be some rehab work. Honestly, it felt great. Looking ahead, looks like Coach has me LPing tempo squat for at least a couple sessions.
Deadlift: 415x3
Heavy. But doable.
4DIP, W4D3
Bench: 295x3x4
Sets 3 and 4 felt especially smooth.
Press: 180x5x4
Did NOT want to press today, but these also went smoothly.
Praise God: My upper body work is progressing as prescribed. I'll have to remember this tomorrow when I'm squatting 230 lbs for tendon rehab: Squats are in the dumps, but press and bench are moving.
Sorry about the injury! I scrolled back and looks like you had a great month :)
