    Bench: 100x5x3

    Press: 80x3x3


    Gains on both. Press is looking wonky again, and it seems to be partially load-based. Might need to drop under for some intentional hypertrophy work on the press. Some sets of 8, 10, 12 to drill pattern and similar. I dunno. I'm really hoping AS's weigh-in tomorrow is favorable.

    W4D2

    Squat: 115x5x3

    Deadlift: 165x5


    These are looking better. Squats are now knees out, better braced all around, bar's in the right place. AS still has trouble finding depth, though. Like ... he can hit it, but on a set of 5, I can count on 2 being high, 2 being low, and 1 being right on target.

    W4D3

    Press: 82.5x3, 65x8x3


    Dude needs some reps, or else I need to consider using 1lb jumps or something. Still, got a PR triple out of him today.

    Bench: 105x3, 95x5x2

    PR triple here with backoffs.

    W4D4

    Squat: 120x5x3


    We deloaded to 95 last time he was at 120 due to unacceptable form: He's looking much better now.

    Deadlift: 175x5

    +10 on this. Much better back-setting happening.

    Layoff due to heavy responsibilities piling up. And ... dude lost weight down to 138 pounds.

    Ran sets of 5 up like it was day 1, landed at these:

    W5D1 (of 2)

    Bench: 85x5x3

    Press: 65x5x3


    These looked stronger than I expected for the post-layoff.

    These looked much better than last time I saw AS squat. Some consistency of diet and training will benefit greatly.

    Deadlift: 155x5

    Also much better.

    Long layoff ... AS came back weighing 136lbs (yikes!) but did well today..
