    I'm at the end of week 2 of sheiko 29 currently.
    This is a copy paste of the spreadsheet.
    I substituted one leg presses instead of lunges and rack pulls from below the knees instead of deadlifts from boxes.

    Lots of lower body soreness. I didn't have much trouble recovering from the upper body work though. I feel the bench %s are a bit low.
    I didn't grind a single rep , but worked pretty hard. I hope this will help me increase my lifts.
    I only added 15KG to my deadlift in a full year !

    I slightly increased the bench weight. But it wasn't much of a struggle.
    The squats were a killer. I didn't grind a single rep but the sheer volume was rough.
    I also feel I started getting better hamstring stretch at the bottom and learnt to squat with more horizontal torso.
    On a side note , I started supplementing with BCAAS. 5g pre workout 10g intra workout and 5g as part of post workout whey.

    I skipped the push ups and GMS. The squat volume for today was kinda insane.Which is good as I am honing technique and building more muscle mass. I truly had nothing left in the tank and couldn't think of doing push ups and good mornings.
    I feel wrecked and have little appetite.
