One of my good friends was down and out for like 3 days after getting stuck. I'm still holding out and letting others go on ahead of me.

Went and got my left knee xrayed after I've noticed some pain over a long period of time. Would sometimes hurt and sometimes wouldn't. Was told it was "mild joint disease" which I think is arthritis? Going to see a specialist in a couple weeks. Not something I was expecting at 31 tbh.

No, can include warmups with added weight.

Last two weeks work.

High bar:

3 x 60kg = 180kg
1 x 75kg
5 x 75kg

4 x 40kg = 160kg
2 x 62.5kg
7 x 62.5kg
4 x 62.5kg = 812.5kg
7 x 55kg = 385kg

160 + 160 + 812.5 + 385 = 1517.5kg (3346lb)

High bar:
8 x 20kg = 160kg
5 x 40kg = 200kg
3 x 60kg = 180kg

14988 + 1,840,040 = 1,855,028

[Camarija]

14988 + 1,840,040 = 1,855,028

Microcycle 8

+ 22,670 = 1,877,698 lbs

This was the first part of my deload cycle, and I still ended up aggravating my old quadratus lumborum injury. About an hour after slow tempo pause squats, and slow tempo pause glute bridges, I felt my QL start to spasm and I knew I was screwed.

I'll do two weeks of a desensitization phase where my weekly volume will be kept very low at maintenance while I rehab my lower back. Hopefully I'll be ready to continue after that.

That's it for the Summer, I think. My running mileage is increasing and I'll be doing plyometric jumping instead of squats.
