Resetting

I've been squatting with a pretty narrow stance, and I feel like my adductors aren't being used properly, so I'm going to widen my stance to shoulder width, deload to 315, and go back to workout-to-workout progression on squats. Should be at where I started in about 2 weeks, hopefully with better adductor use.

Volume day on Saturday:
squat 3x5 315lbs
bench 5x5 220lbs
chins 5,5,5,4,4 189 + 30lbs
some planks and hanging leg raises (essentially turned to knees to elbows)

I also tried to do some sumo deadlifts. Didn't max out, but it felt really good. I might have to start doing this for realsies. 285 was the heaviest i tried, but that was super easy.

Also, I've been on a diet for a few weeks, but on Sunday I cheated like a mofo: 2 cups ice cream, 64oz watermelon drink (I am from Bama), entire can of pringles, 1/2 bag of lays chips.

  1. Well done on that cheat day my man. Keep those knees out on the way up and down on the squats, that may help in addition to the slightly wider stance.
