I'm really hoping it'll be all better by tomorrow because I need to do my week 4 day 1 squats/total body routine.
Pray to the iron gods that this is nothing. I have been seeing such good progress!

Thank you Gus. I’ve been doing the squats barefoot for several months now since you guys mentioned it. It’s my preferred method now. Thanks brother.0 -

Glad to hear that brother!
It is probably not for everyone, and also not allowed in every gym, but its cheaper than lifting shoes, and basically gives the same stability.
Just not the heels elevated, but there you have blocks for1 -

Well it’s been working for me. Now that I’ve hit 315 for 5 sets of 3 I’ll transition my progression from poundage to reps. Once I hit 315 for 5 sets of 8 I’ll switch it back and go to 350.2 -

Being able to squat this kind of volume seems just... Surreal. Good on you, sir.
Hell. Being able to deadlift that volume still seems surreal. Lol0 -

Thanks Sandy, it feels like very slow progress to me. Honestly I just enjoy the grind. I don’t focus solely on chasing numbers. I use the numbers to make sure I’m constantly pushing progression but I try to lift slow and controlled and use intensity techniques to increase time under tension.
I’ve really been enjoying mobility work.
Your lifts are looking great, congrats!
Again thank you for the compliment and listening to my rambling a bit.0 -

They're not allowed in my gym, doesn't stop some people from trying anyhow. Some trainers ignore it, but a few threaten getting membership revoked if they don't put shoes on right NOW, so I've never tried pushing boundaries myself.
Glad to see somebody besides myself who squats heavier than they deadlift, seems every article I read always assumes people pull heavier, but my squat is at least 20% heavier.3 -

When I first added squats to my routine years ago, I got stuck where I simply could not do 315. 295, sure, 305 ok, but something about 315 was a no-go. Mental block maybe, maybe physical. Bottom line was I dropped the weight to 225 and repped the blazes out of it...sets of 15, 20, 25. Did that for a couple months. By the time I tried 315 again, I sailed past and got 365.
These days I'm also working on upping reps at 315, just working from the opposite direction as you are: I had been working towards a heavier 1RM, and couple months back hit 500 for one rep. Never again, so my spine told me, so I dropped the weight to 315 (63% 1RM) and have been only going for reps, with a recent session doing 5x12. Last workout I worked up to 405x5, but my drive to go heavy on squats is gone since that 1RM rep, so I'll just stick with 315 for a while. (Of course, I said the same thing a few years ago, that I wouldn't lift heavy and only do reps, then just look at me this year, so I'll never say never, just not now, lol.)
If only I could take a pinch of my leg strength (where 315 is only a moderate weight) and throw it into my arms (where a single rep at 315 remains beyond me still).1 -
Those are some great numbers. I agree those magical numbers of 225, 315 and 405 can be mentally daunting.
The closest I’ve gotten to those numbers are on Dead Squats running a 10 sets of 1 rep off the pins. Strictly a strength builder but are fun to program in every now and then.1 -

My magical number will be 364lbs
I hope to lift that someday for squats and deadlifts
It's what i used to weigh at my highest, so would be cool to be able to deadlift that weight at my current weight of 232lbs, which i hope to get down to 220 by end of the year3 -

I haven’t hit that weight for those sets of 8 yet. It will be a slow process I’m sure. I’m looking forward to it. Next week I’ll attempt all 5 sets at 315 for 4 reps each. Just a steady climb until it 5x8. I appreciate the compliment brother.
Dude I hope you get that dead lift of your old body weight. I know that would hold such a personal importance to you. GIF it when you do!0 -

Ah got ya! Thought you were already at those reps.
But you will get there not long from now i just know it
And you bet i am gonna gif it if i reach 364 lbs for deadlift (or squat, whatever comes first)
Right now on the road back to where i was before my time off.
But since i was having DOMS for 5 day's after my last squat session, i am being carefull with my squats right now, since i am playing national championship as well this weekend, don't wanna stand with wobbly legs on the approaches, so only been doing upper body workouts, and very low weight leg presses and accessory work last week.3 -
Did an upper body only workout last night. Feeling bummed about the knee acting up. 😔
Still, managed 8,7,6x115lb on bench and at least the first set worked out to a new calc 1rm, so maybe I'll be able to eke out a bit more gains next time I test.
My new crazy *kitten* 1rm goals (now that I hit all my old ones) are: 400 deads, 275 squats, 175 for bench.
They all seem out of reach, so it'll be a huge event if/when I reach them!

DOMS for 5 days is torture 😂. I empathize but it’s also funny brother. I guess the weights told you to FAFO.0 -

Thank you! Gotta dream big, right?
I remember when I set the 300 deadlift goal, I never thought I'd get it, and once I hit it, within a few months I was at 315... so maybe it's doable?
Sadly my bodyweight is still close to 200, so I won't be benching body weight any time soon.

You carry that weight extremely well.2 -
You gotta dream big to accomplish big. Ask the Wright brothers, Neil Armstrong, and my wife. (Went from dropping out of high school to graduating college a couple weeks ago.)
I remember the first time I benched 225, that magical second plate per side, the standard used by NFL draft prospects (and looking back at it, benching my old fat BW before I found MFP and lifting). The whole gym probably heard me shouting in victory that day!
I hope I will be a little more reserved if/when I bench 315 (which is starting to look in doubt, based upon the struggle I had doing 275 last week), but ya never know...
And as far as DOMS goes, there's a reason I schedule the harder of my two leg days on Friday, when I usually have the time to soak in the hot tub after. Fifteen minutes of soaking can often spell the difference between no DOMS or several days of it. (That's my story as I get older, and I'm sticking to it!)1 -

Oh, got some other exciting news, well sort of.
Every year, we have over here in Netherlands the Nijmeegse Wandelvierdaagse.
It's a walking event, one of the biggest on the plantet, and has 47K participants.
I have always said, that i wanna participate before i turn 40, and since i am turning 40 next year (in november) i have decided to go and participate as well next year (since it's during summer).
This will mean i will have to start my training somewhere in February/March next year
It's a 4 day hike, of 50 kilometers each day, now i can easily walk 10 kilometers, and could probably manage 20 km as well, but 50...that's another level.
I have already setup a schedule for my training, which i can start end of february and i should be ready in June. And the event starts in July, so will have 1 month room
That will also mean, i will probably not be lifting much during this training period, might even have my gym subscription on hold, since the training is walking outside4 -

HOLY WOW! That's an incredible goal!!! What are the elevation changes going to be like? it's essentially walking 4 marathons in 4 days... *incredible*0 -
As a youth in scouts, my troop would go for 20mi (32km) hikes, take a good chunk of a day. Going half again as far, then repeating it three more times...ok, I take back the mental image I initially had about this being a silly little jaunt.
Is it cross country? On a street or a track? Do you go home each night between, or camp out? Are there time limits? I admit, now I'm curious.1 -

Maybe by the time I actually can bench 315, I will figure out a way to covertly record it despite gym rules against...1 -

Of course but I’ve noticed he prefers to give great descriptive detail over a gif. I’m good with either. Just hope you hit it brother.1 -

It's on the road, with some elevation changes, i believe on day 3 there is a part that goes up and down.
But since it's Netherlands, its still considered all very flat i guess

I hope i can get a ticket next year, since there is limited spots available2 -
Played qualification of National Bowling Championship saturday, and was series winner with 1268 over 6 in the single and 2517 over 6 in duo.
After my series i was standing in 3rd place overal for the single and 2nd in the duo
After yesterday's series i am now in 4th place.
Pretty happy with it, since i have not played any big tournament over last 6 years.
Went in pretty blanco.
Started out bad with a 153, made a ball switch and scored 257/220/224/257 and ended with a 157.
Last game i was kinda battling myself mentally, and was doing things i should not have done.
So gotta work on that part for finals, and maybe make it to stepladder finals.
