IHIDTP - I hope I'm doing the program

Video of my overhead press for form check. Done with 90 lbs so weight wouldn't effect my form. I went on to press 130 for my work sets. I'll post bench vids when I do them next and my wife is there to record. If this link doesn't work let me know.

3x5 squats 255
1x5, 1x4 1x4 1x3 press 130
1x3 1x2 deadlift 310

Press didn't go perfectly, it always feels easy until all the sudden it's not haha. First time ever failing a deadlift, kind of disappointed.

I just did a quick awkward video, letting you know I'm not an SSC. You could post a form check on the forums. Consider reviewing the book or the press video with Grant.

Thanks for the help Brent. I'll address those issues.

3x5 squats 260
5x3 power clean 120
3x5 bench 155

Squats were definitely the hardest lift of the day. Power cleans are fairly easy as long as I get about 4 minutes of rest and bench goes fairly easy because I deloaded.

Where you at, kid? Don't quit on me!

I haven't quit, but have been struggling due to a wrist injury and increased busyness lately. You'll see some missed workouts and inconsistent excercise selection due to inability to power clean because of my wrist, and inability to recover from too frequent deadlifting. My squat also went wonky, because after my first ever failure at 265, I let the fear get to me and didn't get them done. Moving forward I'm going to move partially into phase 3, and add weight to squats only twice a week, with a light day in the middle, because they've been so grindy and hard to recover from. I may also start doing chin ups instead of power cleans because of my wrist, but once wrist is healed I'll probably switch back and get my clean up higher.
