And squatting...heavy...It is quite imperative to get in first as the only squat cage I care to use is the one with the mirror in front of me. Bar is the thinner one which sits more comfy on my back. SQUATS 95 x5 112.5 x5 127.5 x5 145 x5 150 x5 No belt or wraps used on any sets and all reps ass to the grass. I was satisfied with today even though I did 150 for 5 last monday. I omitted 152.5x3 as per madcows 5X5 protocol last friday in light of wednesday's deadlift PR so I simply upped all the warm-up sets while keeping the final set constant... BENCH Warm-up sets were 2.5KG more than they were meant to be for this week 45 x5 55 x5 65 x5 75 x5 85 x5 91.25 x4 Feet on the bench for the first 4 sets - probably won't try that again as it made the final sets harder rather than easier. Stopped short of 5th rep to avoid failure which is the key goal of this program. Microloading all the way Wrapped up the am session with 2 sets of slow reverse crunches for abs Came back a few hours later and did some: chest supported rows for rear delts, 3 sets of Tate presses and a set of weighted dips for tris, 2 sets of bicep curls and some pec dec to pump the chest... | ||

Member 2195, 111 posts SQ 180, BP 100, DL 210490.0 kgs @ 78.5kgs UnEq | Hellohello!!!! Today was deadlifts - and I am getting more and more optimistic about reaching that 250KG goal I have this year.... SQUATS 95 x5 112.5 *5 127.5 *5 127.5 *5 Pretty doable - managed to keep decent form though was pretty slow PRESS 27.5 *5 32.5 *5 37.5 *5 42.5 *5 Hate this lift because I suck at it so badly... DEFICIT DEADLIFT (2inch) 110 *5 127.5 *5 145 *5 162.5 *5 180 *5 belted Wasn't as hard as I expected...should keep progressing linearly... Glute bridge 45 *30 75 *20 bar *50 Huge pump in the butt - exactly what em look forrr...  | ||
