    This one is going to haunt me until I get the chance to redeem myself. 90kg/198lb up above my sticking point and then my lats cramped up and I lost the lift :neutral:

    I haven't done anything worthy lately, just some simple 5x5 stuff.

    My best bench press is 305 lbs, but I didn't get any video of it, so all I have this on of this one at 255 lbs.

    I've moved into low bar squats and have opened my stance up in hopes to reach depth easier. Here's a double at 405lbs (3 sets).

    I hope to squat at least 3x week for the next few weeks to get shoulders, wrists, and hips accustomed to the new setup. Does that sound wise?

    ^^^ sounds like a good plan. I'm currently squatting 3x week just to bring squats up. Only issue is cumulative fatigue in the joints. I'll back down in a couple more weeks to 2x week.

    Same as @piperdown44 nothing all that worthy. I've transitioned into a somewhat lighter weight routine and more running leading up to my Spartan Race at the end of April. Then I'm doing the 20rep squat program as previously discussed. Here's a couple from the last few weeks though all at 180lb BW.

    160# x 20 reps

    385# DL

    pegboard climb
    https://youtu.be/tw6dk1FcDxs

    Triceps were burning after the peg board and the 385# DL is pretty close to max for me right now I think. The 20rep squats are light, but I'm just trying to get prepared mentally for when I start the real program, and not have my legs to tired for my long runs.

    Sorry I've been absent. After that 200lb Atlas Stone lift I bruised the cartlidge on my upper chest and have been feeling miserable since then. Three days later I got in a car accident: car totaled. I am not at full strength and can't bench and deadlifting is a cranky, evil jerk, but that doesn't mean I can't train and collect some PRs along the way.

    295x13 top set, somewhere near 80% TM and a rep PR +2. I didn't want to train this morning, but going for rep PRs gave me the motivation I needed.

    FSLS: last set of the day. 225x20, somewhere near 60% TM and a rep PR +5. Dear lord, I blame @McCloud33 for this one. :p

    While I am injured all I can do is squat and push press and bicep curls. (Yawn.) While I am injured I am running the last cycle of 531, but the pain is decreasing daily, I hope to be back to 100% in a week or two.

    So this is going to get posted over in my 20rep squat thread too, but @nakedraygun and the fact that I felt good this morning inspired me to go heavier and push myself. Here's 20 rep squat of 225 @ 180lbs...This is probably about 75% of my training max right now.

    I also had DL's today and went for a heavy single, but it wasn't happening after the 20 rep squat. I might have been able to get it up, but I would have had to seriously compromise on form and run the risk of screwing up my back. Here's my fail at 405#

    Damn skippy @McCloud33. For me 225 lbs was around 60% and I weight what, like 212 on average. Nicely done.

    Thanks for the kind words, but I'm still years away from being on your level.
