GSIP W1D2
Supposed to be Intensity Day, but Julie's bad sick and quite uncomfortable/in pain all around. She agreed it was important to get the session in, even though neither of us expected she'd hit her ID targets, so we went to the gym anyway and titrated as we could.
Squat: 130x5
Bench: 86x4 (4PR!)
Press: 55x1, 0, 0
Deadlift: 185x1x2
Surprisingly, Julie hit her target fahve. It was the only lift she was able to perform at full capacity.
Bench would've been a lifetime 5PR if she'd hit it, but she ground out a miss on the 5th. Still: Benching a PR quad when you're sick as a dog is a pretty good bad day.
Press single: Target was 57x1x3, but she was already slowing down at 45 so I shaved some weight to 55. First one came up in 3 seconds; 2 additional attempts didn't clear her forehead, but she gave each a full 5-second push. Girl's got heart.
Deadlift: 185 was supposed to be a warm-up single on the way to 195, but the warmup single took 6 seconds to come up, so I had her rest 4 minutes and pull the 185 again. Second one came up in 2.9 seconds; probably she could have grabbed more singles at that weight but I could tell she was feeling pretty beaten up all around so I threw in the towel for her.
Gotta say: I'm proud of her for sticking through.
