Hello! I'm not new to SL but newer to the group and def new to posting...

Squats-5x5 @ 95 lbs
OHP-4x5 and 1x3 @ 60 lbs
Deadlift- 1x5 @ 135 lbs 1x5 @‌ 165lbs

OHP was really shaky on the last set and only did 3 reps. Deadlifts felt great! Today was the first time using a different grip and I really liked it.

Workout B for me this morning.

I am a little bit sad because I suspected a stress fracture in my tibia for a while (I had a really localized sharp pain when I was trying to get up after being seated below parallel - like on my crappy couch or on the toilet), and I started to experience the same pain while squatting. It looks a lot like a stress fracture in the way the pain is really sharp but not regular nor predictible, and how it start to be more frequent and more sensitive after physical effort. I will have to go to the doctor today or tomorrow, and this sucks.

But, all in all, except the pain, I had a good workout. I did a PR on deadlifts, yay!

Good Mornings: 1x5 with body weight (well, I used a broom stick) and 1x5 with the oly bar

Squats: 1x5 @ 45, 1x5 @ 65, 1x5 @ 85. 1x5 @ 100 and 5x5 @ 110. I'm increasing the weight after my deload on Monday, and it feels good (except the pain in the tibia, as previously stated).

OHP: 1x5 @ 45, 5x5 @ 50. I did all my sets at 50, yay! It was much easier, but still not perfect. I tried to complete a sixth reps on the last two sets, but it didn't happen. I'll try to work on that before increasing the load.

Deadlifts: 1x5 @ 50, 1x5 @ 130. I tried to not warmup on those, because last time, I had a major stamina drop and was not able to complete my sets. 130 was HARD and HEAVY, but I'm proud that I was able to complete all the reps. I may or may not repeat, but I will have to do some grip work because I felt like my grip was falling apart on the last rep.

No accessories today because the 55 pounds kettle were used and I didn't had the time to wait for it. I did a 80 seconds plank on the BOSU.

Then, stretch and foam rolling. I saw on bodybuilding.com a great way to foam roll the traps and the rumboids, and hmmmm, it was good. I could have done this all day.

Oh, Daiva I hope your pain isn't a stress fracture! Yes to getting that looked at!

Hola!

Today was an A workout day for me.

Squat: 1x5 @ 45, 1x5 @ 65, 1x5 @ 75 and 5x5 @ 95.
Bench: 5x5 @ 60 - Is it recommended that I do warm-ups for bench?
Row: 5x5 @‌ 60.

Accessories:
Lat pulldown: 3x6 @ 85.
HIIT (1 minute high, 2 minutes recovery) for 15 minutes.

I'm glad I was able to get to the gym this morning as we've been dealing with ice. The forecast is calling for 6+ inches of snow tonight into tomorrow and then record lows (near zero) on Friday, so I'm not sure if I'll get to the gym.

@Lovetowrite -- I usually do two sets with just the bar to warm up on bench, just to lock in form and get my head in the game.

Good workout today. Entertained by the guy doing either cocaine or pre workout. He was curling with 115 lb dumbbells so must be doing something right.

Squatting 95 lbs now, but think I will stay here for the next workout to make sure I'm going ATG.
Doing hip thrusts at 40 lb now--those puppies get my heart rate up!
Deadlifted more than my bodyweight @ 135 lbs x5 reps, HOORAY! Feels awesome to meet that goal. Now my husband is worried I'm going to be able to deadlift more than him, LOL.
Did a couple of terrible good mornings, need to figure out a better set up to do these.
Other accessory work, love looking at my line graphs and seeing them go up!!

Also, still trying to figure out good cal goal for the day. At 1700 now, eff the scale. I cannot function below this or I get super cranky and road rage-y.

took the day off work and slept for most of it. probably would have done better with two rest days but i went to the gym just to redeem myself a little bit. workout a and imo it was all pretty half-assed.

squats: 2x5@45, 2x5@55, 1x5@65, 5x5@75. still troubleshooting upper-body form, but i worked my grip a little bit inward with every rep and ended up with my pinkies squarely inside the knurls. much more comfortable, and around set 3 i started to re-remember about keeping my chest more 'up' too. elbows/shoulders seem more even, i thiiiiink my left leg and glute are getting stronger, and for what this is worth i lifted without collars and the plates didn't seem like they travelled at all. i'm not happy about some parts of my form though, though i can't quite pin down what it is i don't like.

bench: 2x5@45, 5x5@65. so shoot me, i jumped up 10 lbs. because i couldn't locate either the fives or the fractionals, is why. anyway, this was hard. had that same problem as previously where i lose form getting the bar off the pegs because they're just a fraction too high. which is weird because i don't always have it. i should think more carefully about where i am on the bench, maybe. noteworthiest part was i remembered to 'touch the bench with my hair' throughout the whole thing, for a change. i don't think i performed this lift very well, whatever the weight.

rows. bleh. not that i didn't do them, because i made more than one different attempt. but the whole thing was too messy for me to know what to report. trouble getting equipment, so i did some reps with 30lbs, some with 65 (trainer plates on the great big long bar) and then even tried putting the trainers onto the little curl bar for a 40lb weight. they all pretty much sucked, but the muscles in my left posterior cuff were working pretty hard keeping their side of the bar up for squats, so they were tired already.

plus. there was blood on the knurls of the great big bar, and even after i fetched the doohickeys and spritzed them clean i was kind of squicked out. then i discovered that the same someone had actually left a little chunk of his/her callus on the bar too, and i kind of lost my heart to keep lifing today.

5km run last night. Lifting tonight.

Tonight was insane

Squat 5x5 @ 160lbs. Ugly last rep. Urgh staying here
OHP 5x5 @ 55lbs. Deloaded here, working back up to baby my shoulder
Deadlift 1x5 @ 190lbs, 1x4 @ 210lbs.

Accessories: latpulldowns, Bulgarian split squats

Then i wanted to work on getting lower in squats and perfecting my deadlift form so made a ricidulous circuit of 1x5 deadlift at 165lbs and 1x5 front squats @ 55lbs, repeated five times. Do not recommend so many deadlifts but was lost in perfecting my form....oops...gonna feel that tomorrow.

Did a 5k run yesterday during my lunch break.

Did workout A after work. I deloaded a bit to work on form.
Squats 5x5 at 135. I taped all of these to check form. I'm getting low enough (knew this), but I'm having a bit of a knee issue. My knees tend to drop in when I come out of the hole. I'm going to stay lighter for the moment to work on this.
Bench 5x5 at 110. And I only had to take the 90 second rest periods instead of 3 mins. I want to bump up, but I'm thinking I will wait until after I get back from vacation.
Rows 5x5 at 60. I dropped the weight here to also work on form. These felt really good, not too heavy not too light.

Did a few accessories after:
5x10 of chest flies with 10# in each hand.
5x10 of cable rows with 70#.
And a 10 min bike ride.

A this morning after night shift.

I deloaded everything as I was tired and wanted to work on form rather than ploughing on regardless so it was fairly easy.

I have also set the app now for tiny increments for all increases.

Squat 5x5 60kg
Rows 5x5 35kg
BP 5x5 32.5kg

I still don't know whether my row form sucks or not. I find it very, 'unnatural' for want of a better word despite having studied a load of form videos.


On a side note I think I have PMS yesterday and today and I just want to eat ALL the food, everywhere. I am ravenous. Someone brought us in a load of cookies at work last night. I normally avoid food on my night shift except a midnight snack that I take, but I had 4 of these cookies last night at 100 calories a pop. Oops.

Trying really hard today to behave better but I am soooo hungry. For carbs.
