    31/3-20 tuesday
    Paused DL 3sec
    With one minute rest
    100kgx2x8
    It should have been 10 sets but I ran out of time and juice[emoji6]
    Noticed two things, its a hell of a cardio thing and legs got really shaky. Fun!
    I enjoy playing around with the DL, for me its tuffest and most boring lift. Now its time for my daily protein of scrambled eggs.

    Thats really good. Went from threes to fours and it was fairly easy.
    All this lazy homing is good for recovery.

    Knee is almost painfree, its getting better, and no need for belt, yet. I know that as soon as the weight gets over 80kg it starts to feel heavy. Cant wait to get there.[emoji123]

    To answer your question about the 5's, I am thinking a good idea is when I can get 5 reps on one of the main lifts( maybe for two workouts) up the weight and try for 3 next time, 4 next then 5. I'm doing what I can. I may try doing some partial sqts from the pins to get used to handling some heavier weight.Fifty fit is finding that useful.

    I also find those 3,4,5 steps useful, then to go from 5 to 3 gets to be something of a light week if I do the steps with 0,5kg for the press/bench. I dont do partials for the squat, the squat is my best lift, it works with the deadlift, so why not, just remember to put the spotterarms high or you might get crushed. But I dont think coach Rip is a fan of partail squats[emoji36][emoji38], but its our choice to try and watch what happens.

    This was a really good day.
    Now its time to raise 0,5 kg, thats cool. Had a little tweak during last rep of first set In left shoulder but no pop. So I pushed for a second triple.
