    Switching deadlift to 2x3. My grip seems to be slipping.

    Overall good workout. Loving working out in my garage! Took a 5 min dip in my pool afterward. It was 35 F today with a thin layer of ice. Now time for some sunbathing.

    Another great workout! Squats were grinders on the last rep, as was OHP on set #1. Next week will incorporate a light squat day, and hopefully I'll break past my last plateau of 325x4!

    Week 27 - Workout 1:

    Squat:
    320x5
    290x5x2

    Bench:
    232.5x5
    222.5x5
    212.5x5

    Row:

    Notes:

    Another good workout! My shoulders are starting to get a little sore I think from benching. It just doesn't feel good anymore. I had previously had a shoulder injury from flat benching, and incline or upright pressing seems to be OK. At this point, I may just focus on Squats, Pressing and Pulling. Keep it simple.

    Week 27 - Workout 2:

    Squat:
    255x5x2

    OHP:
    115x5x2

    Deadlift:
    415x3
    395x3

    Notes:

    So I'm slowly transitioning to TM as things are slowing down a little. Since I'm going to stop benching (due to shoulder pain), Wednesdays will be my light squat and light pressing days. I'll see if I can keep hitting PRs 2x per week for a few more weeks before officially switching to TM.

    Week 27 - Workout 3:


    Squat:
    325x5 < PR
    295x5x2

    OHP:
    142.5x3
    132.5x5
    122.5x6

    Chins:
    BWx5

    Notes:

    Woo I hit a PR on squats! My last attempt at 325 I only hit 4. I'm going to try to keep this set up for atleast a few more weeks before switching to TM. Not sure what happened on my Pressing... I may try another reset, especially since I'll be Pressing 3x per week now. I'll see if I can bust past this plateau at 5s, but if not, I'll switch to triples.

    Week 28 - Workout 1:

    Squat:
    330x5 < PR
    300x5x2

    Push Press:
    135x5
    135x3x3

    Row:
    200x5x2

    Notes:

    Great workout! Happy to continue progression with squats! Last rep was a real grinder, but I got it!

    Experimented with push presses. I like them but will take some getting used to. I felt like sets of 3 would be better, so I think I'll do 5x3 or 4x4 or something. We'll see.

    I'm already looking ahead at programming TM, so I'm kind of in a transition. I'd like to begin incorporating Push Jerks. Maybe set up a HLM (Push Jerk/Strict Press/Push Press) especially now that I'm not benching.

    Short and sweet workout. It was recovery day, and heavy deadlifting. I could have gotten 420x5 but my grip gave out.

    Squat:
    335x3
    305x5
    275x6

    Push Press:

    140x3x3

    Notes:

    Squats were a real struggle... To be fair, I was a little distracted this morning. Head not really in the game. Nonetheless, I feel like I'm finally at the end of my NLP, and I think it's time for Texas Method. Here's the set up I'm thinking:

    Volume Day:
    Squat 4x5 @ 85% 5RM
    Push Press 5x3 @ 85% 3RM
    Row 3x5

    Recovery Day:
    Squat 2x5 @ 80% VD
    Press 3x5 @ 80% VD
    Chinups 3x5
    Pushups 2 sets

    Intensity Day:
    Squat 1x5
    Push Press 1x3
    Deadlift 1x5

    New log here.
