yaaaaaaaaas
You running the whole 6 week program?
I don't know yet. I'm just running it as long as I can this time. Last time I made it to 275...I'd like to beat that if I can, but going beltless IDK. If I maintain 3 days a week and 5lbs a workout I'll hit 300 by the new year. 300x20 would just be another nice round number LOL. I'm a little OCD so 300 sounds SOOO much better than 295 or something. As it gets heavier, I might drop to two days a week though. I'm running with a full 5x5 rotation on OHP, Bench (pin), Bentover Row and DL. Thinking I'll run 'till Christmas, see where I'm at mentally and physically and then possible switch back to 5/3/1 after the new year.
Werd. Interested to see how you feel this go round! I feel like you just finished the last one! where did the season go!
heh- #womenwholiftproblems- I use the cookies ALL the time. makes a HUGE difference for me.
LOL. I was having this sort of conversation this past Sunday with the group I bench with. Al doesn't like any 95s. He'll always throw on some 2.5s to make whatever it is an even hundred. Me, on the other hand, generally avoids using 2.5s except in particular instances.
Trying to balance out my joint disease effects on my locked hips with a wider foot placement was not a success, lol.
#scoopingoutyourjoggers- where did you get those! those are great!0 -

Deadlift day 5days ago. 355x9 +1 rep a few sec later (wanted 10). Yanked a little too hard on 1st rep, but I recovered.5 -
Bench testing today. Hit 300!
Went so well, tried 3 plates.
F yeah, even with the ol' wobbly leg. Back at the end of July, when I was training bench by myself, I maxed out at 255. 275 in the beginning of August, with spotters to help with confidence and lift-off. Really began this bastardized Westside programming cycle in the beginning of September.8 -

Thanks! And yes, VS leggings. The flat waist/ones that don't fold are probably some of my favorite leggings for lifting.0 -
yeah we have those here- I'm just to lazy to go in there and go hunting- I don't like hunting that much- and it's not really "on my way" anywhere- which is why I don't go in there- I do a lot of TJMaxx shopping.
I should go and look though. I hate paying full price for anything.0 -
285 lb squat for a 10 lb PR since last month. Still not really finding my groove since we widened my stance.
Felt a little disappointed with this and bench, (matched my previous bench PR on my own, had worst spotter ever and didn't get new PR on my own) but this would be a combined 33 lb increase on my total at about 30 lbs lower body weight than my last meet, so I guess I shouldn't be too upset. I just want mooooore.

Very high bar. Bar is basically sitting on top of my delts.
I guess I wouldn't consider this to be a super deep squat based on my hip crease to knee height..? I'm just really short so my butt ends up close to the ground ahahaha.0 -

It's a pretty deep squat from the angle of the camera. Great looking squat!! I don't think that's a true current 1RM, though. Looks like with a nice grind, you'd have upwards of 300lbs.0 -

Ah, thanks
I've been having a mental block since getting back to heavier squats (Failed 295 twice last month when I was sure I was going to hit 300+), and this was a gym and set up I wasn't familiar with so I was nervous to push it too much, and not happy with how my knees pulled.
I hit 300 last year when I was 30 lbs heavier and squatting pretty narrow, but haven't touched heavy squats much since then. I really wanted to retest once I got back home yesterday but the coach denied me haha.2 -

Stay patient. You'll knock it out of the park after you get back in a routine. Looking forward to it!2 -
