10/19/2011

Squat 310 1x5 (barely, a dude at the gym jumped in and spotted me) 225 1x8
bench press 190 4,4,4
row 180 3x5
dips 17,12,10

Going to have to figure out what to do with the squat, it's hard to believe I was able to get 295 3x5 last week and I can't do 310 1x5 this week. Might need to deload and work back up. I felt like my abs and lower back took a beating on mondays' workout with the squat and deadlift and that gave out on the squat before my legs did.

  1. Hey Mikey so what I've been doin to progress on my Squats is, using your weights as an example, would be if the last time I was at the gym I repped 295 I would start the next time after my warmups by doing 2 sets of 295 and depending on how I felt continueing at that weight or moving up to either 300 or 305. It feels like only adding 5 of 10 pounds is nothing for legs I know but now that we're lifting so heavy I think it works out well, for me it lets my body adjust comfortably to the increased weight. I started doing deadlifts before Squats on my dl days since I need much more work on my dls than I do Squats. Squat 245 3x5 255 2x5 ohp 130 5x5 dl 225 1x5
