Figuring out a good time to train is going to be weird now that I have a full time job. Motivation was low.

280 3x5 x,x, felt like @9

Bench 1ct
165 3x5 @8

Deadlift
345 12x1 EMOM I was just darn tired by the time deadlifts came around.

Squat
315 1@8
330 1@9 meh...was hoping I’d have 350 but with weight loss I’ve lost some strength performance
270 2x5

Bench 1ct
170 3x5 this felt great

Deadlift stiff bar with hook grip for the comp
350 1@7? Should have been like 6 or less but guess I’ll see how 385 goes which was my planned opener.
385 @9.5 damn that’s heavy WTF?! Well guess I’ll probably open with 350 and see how well it moves

I was really hoping I’d have a solid 385-390 @8 so I could try and pull 415+ but we will have to see how things move at the mock meet.

Feels weird to do nothing so just playing while I contemplate what I’m going to do next. I’ll be traveling next week so trying to find a CrossFit Gym. Also need a new program to follow while I continue the weight cut.

Meet @ Valens Strength
Morning BW 183.8

Squat
Attempt 1: 320
Attempt 2: 335 moved very well so I took a conservative jump to 365 even though I really wanted 375 to PR
Attempt 3: 365

Press
Attempt 1: 145 felt heavy so didn’t want to waste a 2nd attempt on non PR weight
Attempt 2: 160 PR
Attempt 3: 170 failed

Deadlift
Warm ups felt heavy so wasn’t feeling it but decided I’d see how 370 moved. 370 moved quick so I figured I’d see if 390 moved quick before making a PR jump.
Attempt 1: 370
Attempt 2: 390
Attempt 3: 417.5 PR
