Continuing the lame streak

9/11/14
Squat
215x4x3x0
*During warm-ups I developed a sharp pain in my elbow that got worse as I continued and had to cut my squats early. I'm not sure this is the cause but it felt like the weight wasn't balanced correctly on my back.

Press
110x5x3
*Elbow didn't mind the press too much

Chins
9,8,7
*No problem with elbow

Deadlift
240x4x1
*I worry about my form as the set continues. I need to take a video so I can be confident as the weight increases.

9/13/14

Squat
185x5x3
*My elbow is killing me during squats now. I tried 210 and could only do 3 so I guess I will take a step back and try and fix some things.

Bench
190x5x3
*Would have been pretty easy without the elbow issue

PC
*Elbow definitely didn't like these so I had to skip these and deadlift instead

Deadlift
240x5x1

9/16/16

Squat
190x5x3
*A little less elbow pain today but still a problem. Focusing on wide grip and it seems that inverting my hand so that the pinky side is on the bar helps.

Press
112x5x3
*Just got my microplates!!!

Deadlift
245x5x1

Chins
10,7,5

9/18/14

PC
95x3x5
*Did these first since I've been having elbow problems with my squat. Unfortunately, these also hurt my elbow so I'm not sure what to do anymore.

Bench
192x4x3x3
*Maybe too big of a jump. Elbow didn't help

Squat
195x5x3
*Squats didn't make elbow pain worse which is nice

9/20/14

Squat
200x5x3
*Concentrating on grip. These felt better on the elbow

Press
113x5x3
*Now that I have microplates I don't really have a rationale for jumps. I guess as long as I get the reps

Deadlift
250x5x1

Chins
10,8
*I forgot to do my last set!

[jusmoren]

9/23/14

Squat
205x5x3

Bench
192x4x3x0
*Elbow pain during squats was pretty minimal but for some reason it still really affects my bench. It's usually hardest on the first rep where I have a lot of trouble keeping the descent even.

Power Snatch
45x3x5
*Since I can't seem to get my form right for PC I decided to try the snatch. These are fun but pretty exhausting. It seems these are going to have to be done and much lighter weights than PC.
