The squats went really good again this week, the weight feels good on my back and the top set was pretty easy. I’m feeling good for hitting my number next week but I might skip it and do suit work instead. The lower back was pretty well seized up after all the work to it, but I’ve ignored direct lower back work for a while and I need to get it up to speed.

Quick workout, all the sets were done in less than an hour. We changed the bands after the first set, we had forgotten where we put them and quickly remembered after the first set. The 3 board work is definately a PR, I’ll have to look back to be sure but I dont think I’ve ever even singled that weight before.

Deadlifts went well today, I miss gripped my last set of 10 which made it a little extra difficult but nothing too bad. The rev band’s went well, my goal is to pull 660 for a double next week.

Well it was a day of PRs for me. First my high bar squats I was happy to get 460 without a belt but that set went so well I decided to do my 480 without it either. While it wasn’t quite as pretty I got through the set which is a big PR for me. After all the crap with the titan centurian last time I had it on I’ve been wanting to get my metal viking squatter on. Finally did today, although I was rushed through the sets I’m fairly certain the 645 is a PR straps down, that’s only 15lbs lighter than I opened with last meet. I think alot of this has been wrapping my thumbs around the bar with squats, it helps me keep my elbows in which helps keep me more upright…
