Session #7 - 3/16/22
SQUAT: 205 x 3x5
BENCH: 165 x 3x5 (Video)
DEADLIFT: 260 x 1x5
After squats, my left shoulder and elbow had some weakness. Shoulders felt very tight on first few warmups. Not the first time this has happened in my lifting career. Could be a grip issue that I need to isolate and fix.
Bench was impacted from shoulder/elbow issue. Pushed through the pain but video shows I didn't go down as far on the left side. Last rep was a little tougher, but don't think is a strength issue. May try 2.5lb jump next week, depending on shoulder/elbow condition.
Used hook grips for all deadlifts; getting comfortable with my thumbs being torn from my hands lol. 4th and 5th rep form was a little off. Felt my lower back start to round and bar slide away from me, but got the bar off the floor and locked it out. Need to fix this issue. Switching to 5lb jumps from now on, since I'm still pulling 3/week.
