    Reason is, my calfs are extremely skinny due to my broken foot, and squats are not helping.

    this almost killed me. depth was questionable but I am glad I got all reps at least, and no back pain at all.

    Did you move straight from injury to intermediate programming? No return to basic SS linear progression in between?

    No, after my injury my squat went down from 255 to 165. Then I worked my way back up to 255, which is roughly 1.5xBW. Then I decided I was back at the intermediate level.

    Anyways, during the past 2 weeks I've come to conclude that I can't progress 5 lbs per workout anymore, and squatting this heavy 3 times a week is taking it's toll on me. And I am eating plenty, and got really nice love handles to prove. Starting next week I'll do only 2 heavy days, and 1 medium day.

    M: BackSquats/Bench/Powerclean/Pull ups
    W FrontSquats/Press/Deadlift/Dips
    F Backsquats/Bench/Rows/Pull ups

    Alternate press and bench.

    Only got 4 reps on that last one (BANG!!) but it was damned good considering I only got 1 rep 2 days ago.

    Bench 3x5
    135 155 170
    then some guy insisted on spotting me for 175 and I got 8 reps, but he helped me way too much, felt like 155.

    That was it for today. I'm saving the deadlifts for Friday, because I don't want to fuck myself up too much before then. I still have to nail 270 on squats this week.

    Got it motherfuckers! It was surprisingly light! I had to double check the weights. Wow!

    Press 3x5
    135 115 155
    Missed a rep on the last set

    Deadlifts 1x4
    300
    It felt light! I recorded it, and I'm sure I could have gone for the full 5 reps. I made it look so easy haha, considering I was only getting 1 rep of 295 last week.

    Damn I was expecting to suck horribly today. I'm pleased.
