Day 16
General comments:
The altitude made itself felt today. The wife had to abort during skiing-machine warmup due to dizziness and nausea, and I was completely trashed between sets and out of breath.
Otherwise things are getting HEAVY. I guess thats to be expected by workout 16. Weightgain is going well, after I switched to full milk GOMAD.
Weight: 84.3 kg
Workout time: 50 minutes

5 mins skiing-machine device

Squats:
2x5xbar
1x5x95
1x3x135
1x2x185

I narrowed my grip (see suggestion above) which may or may not have helped. I had less slipping of the bar, but felt more stress on elbows/shoulders. Might justve been the stretch though.
Other than that they were heavy today. As the wife wasnt there, it was hard to judge buttwink/depth and imbalance. The third workset was actually the best, as I finally got a bounce out of the hole. Took 3 minute rests today.
Press:
2x5x45
1x5x60
1x3x75
1x2x90
3x5x100
Was kinda close to failure on the last reps on the last set. 2 minute rests, which I might have to bump up next time.
Deadlift:
Some warmup stuff
1x5x135
1x3x175
1x2x215
1x5x240
Tough, but good. Was panting like crazy after the workset though. Would like to get a vid of my lower back, to see how "hard arched" it is. I dont think its flexed, at least.
Wife:
As mentioned the altitude got to her today.
