Huy's LP run 2022

[Huy Huynh]

I have started the LP 18 weeks ago but I didn't do it right. Now I want to start putting it on the board so when I flop everyone can see it.

Male, 21, bit less than 5'5", BW 80.5kg/177.5lbs in the morning of June 1st 2022.

Week 18 May 23rd-29th 2022

Squat 125kgx5x3 127.5kgx5x3 130kgx5x3
B/P/B 80kgx5x3 53kgx5x3 81.25kgx5x3
Ch/DL/Ch 9,8,6 162.5kgx5 10,8,6

Right knee, right wrist pain after 2nd workout of the week. Wrist pain (lateral side): while lowering 5th rep of the press, the bar went too forward and fell down. I caught it in a reverse curl and bam, power clean had to wait. Knee pain (back side): don't know the cause but it doesn't hinder going up in weight. I hope.

Reset weight in the squat and went up from 120kg. Week 15-17 was horrible with progress after failing in the squat at 142,5kgx4+fail in 1 top set + 2 back-offs fashion (back angle vertical, bodyweight gain stalled). I want to get that weight with 3 sets across and much more. Now I'm working on my form and eat more and more. Rip said for general purposes I should be around 190.
