Bench
365x1
225x10 feet on bench

390 wasn't going to happen today, felt too hard, so that was it

tates
40x2x12
50x10

wrist stuff
6 sets of wrist stuff

pull ups
3x10

thoughts

Bench was about as strong as I expected it was gonna be.

It would be silly to expect a PR at almost 10 lbs lighter and not having properly peaked the bench.

[LegosInMyEgos]

Watched the whole thing on 200x speed. Would show to grandkids.

[BombDonald]

I can't remember and I don't feel like digging through your log, have you ever repped 365?

[LegosInMyEgos]

Why? Why not?

Squat

500x1 <----- 15 lb PR

thoughts

I don't know how to explain it. I planned on going this morning and doing a moderate double in preparation for my 500 attempt on Friday. As soon as I started squatting my first warm up set, I knew that 500 lb squat was today.

Idk if I am peaked or not, but for some ridiculous reason my mindset was perfect today, and I couldn't pass up the opportunity.

My only regret is deciding to set the pins higher for 500 set. I really wish I just sacked up and the set without them. I ended up hitting them about an inch before where I wanted to be.




Anyways, regardless, 500 on my back has been a huge mental roadblock to me for over a year now, and I had very little fear of the weight when I had it on my back today, and now I am ready to start using my knee sleeves and really move forward with the squats.

Deadlift max will be friday.

I expect to crush another squat PR whenever I lift with the PL crew next, I won't need to set pins then.

nope, I think the most I have doubled is 350.

Nice squat man, guess all those front squats really helped lol

[Ironlife]

Lulz wtf, great job man!

Amazing skill listening to the body and going when you know the time is right, well done.

Depth is fine

No doubt, its hard to tell from the 500 video because hitting the pins threw off my groove, but my last warm up with 445 really shows how much stronger and fluid my squats have become.

Thank u ILO.

Now I can add dem knee sleeves to my squat finally.

[Woody-5]

Hella fine work on that 500 squat!
Huge milestone right there

[Ironlife]

Yeah get some knee sleeves son, what a massive milestone.

In for a 570 deadlift next

Its more than a milestone right now. I have never been able to commit to doing anything resembling a squat with 500 before today. I was able to come in in the morning with no sleep after having already worked out today and have the mental fortitude to commit to it. It was much easier than my last 2 squat PR's too.

Its been a mental roadblock for 14 months, and now I think I can start to move my squat again.

Idk man, I'm really not sure what I should try for on the deadlift.

My first attempt is def gonna be 560 or 565, I would be happy with any DL PR tbh.

Looks good in the sig too, two lifts into the 500s.

Deads should be something like,

135x3
225x2
315x1
405x1
475x1
525x1
560x1 or something

Not gonna take weird jumps like that, but the last set looks about right.

Front Squat Smolov Write Up

Results

1. Upper back improved tremendously
2. Bench Press suffered a little due to fatigue when training it
3. Back squat form improved a lot
4. Deadlift ?????

Future Implications

I think I will Front squat twice a week going forward, and limit back squats to low volume and very high intensity. I think I will do this until my front squat gets to within 60-70 lbs of my back squat (if that ever happens), because for the time being, that seems like the best idea going forward.

I came to the same conclusion, vegetarian. I guess great minds think alike.

My answer would still remain the same. Her posting means nothing. It's just text on the internet.

Will settle for a blowjob, though.

going well. my squat and dead are actually staying about the same during my cut. im still at 140, about 4 more lbs to drop and im sitting around 9% right now. I low bared squatted for the first time in about 4 months and got 445 with some strugle and dead 500 for the lols at a pl meet i went to this weekend. Bench is down though, probably 240.

Havent gone heavy in oly in some time though. Im really thinking of combining the two and just lifting for fun with no real goal in place.
