    Here's my workout from this morning coming back after Thanksgiving break. Includes a new PR for OHP...never been able to hit all 5 sets of 5x5 with 135 before! :smiley:

    That's a lot of squats! Nice job on the PR.

    Thanks @_incogNEATo_ and @LolBroScience ! And yes, yes it is a lot of squats LOL. It's not too bad yet, but I know when I get up past 250-260# again, it's really going to suck.

    I just did 250x20 squats on Friday and it did suck! I probably could have done 275 if I didn't attempt 250 first. No way was I going to try two 20-rep sets in one workout!

    Yeah, one 20 rep set is all for me per workout LOL. If I was going to do more I'd be dropping weight, not increasing. Was working out with a friend of a friend about a month and a half ago and he was doing a 5x10 program and was at 265# :open_mouth:

    I was just looking to hit a new widowmaker PR and I picked 250 as a nice round number that I thought was doable. This was right after I worked up to a new squat 5RM at 410.

    I figured if I was going to deadlift in my socks I might as well give the slippers a try haha. Actually didn't have any problems and I'll probably wear them for everything but squats now :D

    20 rep squat program is only one set of 20. it does suck. But it's a specific thing- as @McCloud33 mentioned.

    I'm definitely not doing the 20 rep squat program because I'm not crazy! I was just attempting a 20 rep PR one time for a widowmaker challenge.

    I guess I'm just freaking insane then LOL Your 1RM is 100-150 more than mine and I'll be at 250x20 this time next week :grimace: 235x20 this morning...probably pushing 70% of my 1RM

    This morning's workout...
    240x20 squat - last 5 were rough
    140 OHP 5,5,5,5*,0 (*4th set was about 2 OHP and then 3 push press)
    365x5 DL

    Squat felt decent...OHP felt so much heavier at 140 than 135 on Monday :tongue: ...DL felt strong.

    20 squats just takes up so much video time even when sped up x2 LOL

    Max floor press- 155x1
    On another note I haven't done deadlifts in 10 days. Can't wait to train tomorrow, even if its just speed work! I'm having major deadlift withdrawal.

    Finally lifting again. Took some time off due to a small back injury (caused by a violent sneeze??). Now I get to go into a deload week to prep for my meet next weekend... two weeks lifting light, what a drag!
