Nice work. How's school going?

[LegosInMyEgos]

Nice work. How's school going?

thanks broseph.

its my last semester so I am just taking Quantum Mechanics, Biochemistry-2, Immunology and doing lots of independent research. Relatively light semester load so I have been able to devote lots of time to lifting.

hbu?

lol no sh!t.

I'm taking calc 3, phys 2 with lab, and engineering econ and working full time. Also just got engaged and bought a house which I have been doing some minor renovations to. So I also have loads of time to lift.

[LegosInMyEgos]

So I also have loads of time to lift.

sarcasm?

[Blizzard589]

Yes. But I thought your "relatively light semester load" was sarcasm as well

[LegosInMyEgos]

lol, nope, i was being serious.

It sounds weird, but I only did sets of 4 because I felt too strong to control the weight and it made me feel unstable. I am very paranoid about a potential pec strain

My joints are falling apart but I feel way stronger than I have ever been. I just need to keep myself together for 3 weeks until I max.

I originally planned to do a heavy double with ~360 next week, but I don't feel like 1 week of peaking is going to be enough, I think I need 2 weeks of peaking to fully realize the benefit of incline bench and to transition into heaviness.

I completely lost the ability to do squats in one fluid motion. basically my squat is 2 separate motions that both feel ****ty.

My left leg is still on dat ****gy time, so I am going to continue to try and fix the form while I focus on bench.

I felt off my game today, but I had just enough in me to make this work for me.

Next week is either 361x2 or 366x2, I havent decided, what do you guys think?

[DominationStation]

Judging from that? Not 366.

[LegosInMyEgos]

Judging from that? Not 366.

Ya, I am on the fence.

I think I need to hit 366x2 to have some confidence in being able to hit 400.

I was a little off today strength and form wise, so idk. I think I could hit this weight for 5 on a good day.
