    Switching back to Mon/Wed/Fri with light day for squats (Wed)

    Mon, May 29, 2017
    Squat 145kg (319lbs) x 5, 2, 2, 130kg (286lbs) x 5
    Bench 85kg (187lbs) x 5, 5, 5
    Chins 8, 8, 8
    Bodyweight 90.5kg (199lbs)

    Squats - ran out of gas for 2nd/3rd set, dropped weight and did a 4th. Probably do 2nd/3rd sets as back-offs from now on.
    Bench - dropped back to 85kg after mistakenly loading too much last week.

    Wed, May 31, 2017
    Squat (Light) 120kg (264lbs) x 5, 5, 5
    Press 52kg (114.5lbs) x 5, 5, 4
    Power Clean 60kg (132lbs) x 3, 3, 3, 3, 3

    Squats - decided to switch Wed to light squats to help recovery and keep LP going a few more weeks.
    Press - Lost focus and tightness on last rep of 3rd set.
    Power Cleans - First time doings cleans this year, so starting light.

    Fri, June 02, 2017
    Squat 147.5kg (324.5lbs) x 5 PR!, 130kg (286lbs) x 5, 5
    Bench 86kg (189lbs) x 5, 5, 5
    Chins 9, 8, 6

    Squats - All time PR! Felt lighter than Monday, going light on Wed worked. Going for 150kg on Mon.
    Bench - Slow and steady, but got them all.

    Bodyweight 91kg (200lbs) - no longer a baby mammal!

    Wed, June 7, 2017
    Squat 150kg (330lbs) x 5 PR!, 135kg (297lbs) x 5, 5
    Press 53kg (116.5lbs) x 5, 5, 5
    Chins 9, 9, 7

    Still looks like lower back is rounding slightly at the bottom, might post a form-check video.
    Presses were harder than they needed to be. I need to focus on not letting the bar drift away from me.

    For the first time ever, my wife joined me in the gym! (Yes, I've read the advice to not coach your wife/girlfriend, but I've never been one to listen to good advice and I'm a sucker for punishment.)

    Squats weren't 100% successful, but it's a start. Bench went better with her working up to 2 decent working sets of 5.

    Squat (Light) 130kg (286lbs) x 5, 5 - was meant to be 125kg
    Bench Press 87kg (191.5lbs) x 5, 5, 5
    Deadlift 180kg (396lbs) x 2 PR - Couldn't muster the energy/focus to do another rep
