Squat 115kgx5repsx3sets, felt ok
OHP 49kg failed on 4 rep of every set. Moved to 5sets of 3 reps. Really struggled.
DL moved through warm up sets no problem. Got to workset at 125kg and couldn't break it off the floor. Reset form 3 times but still couldn't get it off the floor. Left
Live to fight another day

Wednesday
Squat 115kg x 5 reps x 3 sets, strangely they seem to be causing no problem at the moment. Time to think about form again?
Bench 63.5kg x 5x3, ok but seem to be stuck in the 60s for ever
Power Clean back in today 40kgx 5x 1, 45kg x 5 x 5 plus 50kg x 5x3
Decided to add in some OHP at end just 40kg x5x 3. Need to stick to every third day for rest I think.

Saturday session. Was pushed for time. No squat racks available when I went in so went straight to Deadlift on platform.
Warm up ok. Then went for the 125kg. Pulled first two ok and then couldn't pull the third despite setting up again three times and attempting grind. Back down to 117.5kg and pulled 5.
Finally got access to a rack went through warm up sets but couldn't move the 115kg that had been easy during the week. Ran out of time.
Ok time to think about programme moving forward.
