Went to the gym. It closed early, tried to run outside, but didn’t beat the rain… soooo. Lifted random stuff in my garage! Approx 25lbs gas can!! Not dangerous right? 😂
Is this what they call “explosive power”? Asking for a friend.2 -

But... That's the point, right? Lol
Here's what I was thinking...
3 @ 50% - 135lb
3 @ 65% - 180lb
2 @ 75% - 205lb
1 @ 85% - 235lb
1 @ 95% - 260lb
1 @ 102% - 280lb
If I can keep going, I'll go up by 5 or 10lb.
The last two were uglier than I would have liked... But I did it! Haha

New 1RM PR of 280lb

Thanks! I actually PRd all three lifts. Bench, squat, deads.
I followed a 7 week cycle, 4x a week, and lifted according to that. It included accessory work, varying techniques, rep abs set volumes. At the end I tested all my 1RMs and saw growth in all three. I'm going to do a deload week now, let myself recover a bit and then start at week one again, using the new PR numbers as the baseline.0 -

@KickassAmazon76 You feel a 1 week deload will be sufficient? How are your joints holding up?
