Thanks for checking in guys and the advice. I don't think I will eat a sheet cake a day for sure, but probably ramp up a few more calories. Definitely not go hog wild as it were. I think Monday I will push into intermediate territory as I continue this journey. I have appreciated all who have swung in and left comments and have helped me out. I am closer to 300 for my squats, and still working towards that 405 dead lift.
Squats:3x5@290-as when I break into new ground, I am thinking these can use more work, but still moving upward with the weight.
Press:5x3@140-I read through a post somewhere where Coach Rip suggested doing 5 sets of 3 on a sticking point, so thought I would give it a try. A set of 3 does help mentally, as the weight starts to get heavy, you only have one more rep to go.
Light Dead Lifts: hit these again, 2x5@280-trying to get that form down much better 280 feel fairly light at this point, but I still am not getting those lats activated enough to prevent the bar from swinging out around rep 3 or 4.
I am digging into PPST And The Barbell Prescription to see where I go from here. I am thinking H/L/M on a M/W/F split, but not adverse to doing the four day split either.
