So my training has been a bit of a mess lately, for a variety of reasons. The fucking burn on the inside of my elbow just wasn't healing with getting all hot and sweaty and subjecting it to friction for a couple of hours every couple of days. Decided I needed to give it some time to heal, and today decided it was healed up enough to get back in the gym. I'm also heading off on a trip to Nashville next week, so anything I did to get back on track to truly milk the shit out of the last of this LP would just get derailed again then. I decided I'm going to do a mini peak for my squats, because 405 feels within reach before then. Press and bench I'm going to run out for triples, and maybe attempt a 1RM before I go. Deadlift will remain business as usual, most likely. Essentially I'm calling this the end of this LP run, and I'm perfectly happy with how it's gone. When I get back I'll go back to intermediate programming of some sort, probably HLM. Today's squats felt pretty good. Hit a PR, and a couple of back off triples. Thursday I'll try for 385x2, and Saturday I'll work up to a sub max single. I'll try for 405 Monday or Tuesday. On the press, 165x3 was a real grind. Didn't even get one on the next set so I backed off. Elbow still isn't up to power cleans, so I decided to fuck with some landmine rows, just because I've never done them before and needed some kind of light pull to do. I liked them!
