    It didn't feel great when I woke up on deadlift day, but I wrapped it up pretty tight, didn't hinder me at all during deads and it feels much better 2 days later...So, we're all good now lol.

    2.10.13

    Squat Day

    Warmup
    Vertical Jumps: 5 x 3

    Squats (beltless, forgot knee sleeves today... )
    135 x 8
    225 x 5
    260 x 8
    305 x 3
    355 x 1
    400 x 3
    425 x 3 x 1
    445 x 3 x 1
    470 x 2 x 1 (got stapled on the first rep...came back, powered through 2 x 1)

    Barbell RDL
    135 x 12
    225 x 12
    275 x 12
    275 x 12

    Lying Leg Curls (1.5 reps)
    55 total reps , 6 sets, at 90 lb o

    Hanging Knees-to-Forehead
    Bw x 55 over 6 sets

    Incredibly hard training session. I got to the gym and realized that I had forgotten my knee sleeves lol. As many of you know, I like to keep my knees warm as I have had 3 surgeries on them due to football. I squatted without them, and it was a bit awkward, especially with the heavier sets. I got stapled by 470, likely in part because of the lack if sleeves, but more so because of a lack of confidence. However, I pushed though and hit 2 x 1 with it and was pleased with that. Vids to come.

    Set the pins lower in that power rack when you squat, you're basically on your toes when you take the weight out.

    I should be getting at least 515, maybe more. These squats were beltless, something I hadn't done until 3 weeks ago in a longg time lol, with no knee sleeves (forgot them today).

    Since my core is so powerlifting-weak , the difference between my belted and beltless squat is pretty big right now.

    Raise your arms a bit (even with your shoulders) and roll your elbows forward and bring your wrists back a bit i bet this will help your lats get wider and shoulders to pop a bit more (a small posing tip).

    I think you are not showing your full potential on your back. Regardless your shoulders/lats are HUGE

    Goes to show you that lifting later in the day rather than the crack of dawn makes all the difference.

    Lol, it really does. Especially since I had pretty much tried and failed at that workout earlier that day.

    Numbers are climbing man! When you do OHP are you "going down to the chest, some what relaxing and then exploding up" or are you "stopping prior to chest level (say chin?) and then pressing".

    Vertical Jumps for Height
    3 x 5

    Box Squat Banded Knees
    2 sets

    Squats
    135 x 8
    225 x 3
    260 x 8
    305 x 5
    355 x 2
    405 x 1
    445 x 1
    470 x 3, 2, 3 (bombed out on 3rd rep of 2nd set)

    Lying Leg Curls (hard squeeze at top)
    55 total reps over 6 sets

    Weihhted Situps (DB against chin)

    I was very pleased with myself today. First set of 470 x 3 felt pretty solid and I was pumped as 470 x 1 last week was brutal lol. I lost my tightness on the 3rd rep of the second set and went down and then came back strong on the 3rd set.

    Lying leg curls and sit-ups were done with very short rest. Deload time :P.

    I do not bring them to a dead stop at the chest after every rep, but I bring it back to the starting position (at chest level) on each rep.

    Ya, weights are starting to feel much better...This squat session really indicated that to me.

    Your third set was your best squat set.

    See how those chuck's make all the difference in the world?

    Try pointing your toes out a little more. Your knees are coming in a tad in the hole, pointing your toes out a bit more will give your knees a chance to try travel and "push out" at the bottom.

    Good work Evan!
