SS B

Last day of SS for now (due to travel over the next few weeks and potential lack of consistent access to a squat rack while travelling).

Front squat 242 3x5 (Guessing my 5RM is around 260, maybe a shade under)
Bench press 201 3x5 (Last rep on last two sets were exceedingly slow, 5RM is maybe 210ish)
Power clean 205 5x3 (I was supposed to do 195, accidentally threw on 10 more, heavy but manageable)

Recap:
Below are my starting 5RM's and highest successful working weights after 7 weeks of linear progression
Back squat 260/280
Front squat 205 (this was probably more like 95% of my 5RM at the time)/242
Press 135/145
Bench press 185/201
Power clean 175 (also probablly around 95% of my actual 5RM at the time)/205
Deadlift 335/355

Based on how these lifts felt over the last few days I'm guessing my 1RMs are as follows
Back squat 320
Front squat 290
Bench press 230
Press 160
Power clean 220
Deadlift 390

I would like to test the 1RM back squat and press relatively soon to see if I actually have a 1x BW press and 2x BW squat. Also I'd really like 300 on the front squat. Anyways it's been a good ride, I'm glad I took this time off to work on this.
