Finished all my press worksets but I was slowing down towards the end, I think benching fatigue might of been the cause. I won't make that mistake again.

Phase 1 session 4
I think this workout will be the last of adding 5kg to any of the lifts. I probably could keep adding weight on the deadlift, but I would would rather slow down now rather than hit a stall so early on in phase 1. I am hoping to make it at least 2 weeks on the first phase. The overhead press simultaneously feels like the least exhausting lift but also the hardest. Last week 35kg was hard. I hit all my reps on 37.5kg but it was tough. Squats had a few wonky reps, nothing major but the bar is slowing down and things are definitely getting harder, another 5kg jump would probably lead to a stall after today so I will be going 2.5kg per session from here on out.

My form with a new belt has completely unravelled. I’m not sure if I should keep adding weight with my squats looking like this all of a sudden
Form check on second and third squat sets.
Thanks Bro.Quote:
