    Thanks, it’s good to hear people considering 33 young. Recovery is not what it once was in my twenties, but eating a crap ton and sleeping where and when I can seems to do the trick.

    Light Squat: 285x5x3

    Press: 177.5x1x1
    Injured my back on second rep. Not sure if it’s spinal or muscular. The pain feels like it’s to the right of my thoracic spine, but its really sharp depending on how I maneuver my body.

    I stopped training immediately, went home and took Tylenol.

    Was away for 1.5 weeks.

    11/9/2020:

    Squat: 365x5x2 - immediate soreness and puked after 2nd set. Body had clearly said that’s enough.

    Bench: 245x3x1, 245x1x1

    Deadlift: 385x4x1

    Clearly I got detrained. I am going to pull out the book and see what to do next.

    Damn it.

    Bench: 245x5x1, 245x3x1, 245x2x1
    Damn it.

    Deadlift: 385x5x1

    I think I’m done with LP. Gonna reset a little bit and start the Texas Method next week. Plan on doing Paul Horn’s 4-day variant he presented to get a little more recovery.

    That sucks that your last few workouts didn't go so well. Are you counting your calories? What are they at? If you don't mind me asking.

    Also, I would highly recommend 1 day on, 2 days off, as per page 98 of PPST which "... may be the most powerful adjustment of all."

    If you still want to do TM, good luck and God speed!! But I bet you have more LP in you
