Volume:
Squat 360 5x5
Intensity:
Squat 415 1x5 <- failed, got 4 reps. The 4th was a real grind and I knew I wasn't gonna have it.
This was annoying because I thought I had at least another 10-15lbs in me. However, my company sent me to Boston to give some talks at MIT and I flew all day before the workout, had terrible nutrition, and then slept about 4 hours. I'm going to give it a go again this week, and should be able to get it.
Pressing lately:
Press: 160 3x5 got 5/5/4. Try again this week.
Bench: 240 3x5 got 5/5/5. Going well.
Meet is in 4 weeks. I have 1 taper week which means that I'll have 3 more cycles. This puts me at (if i don't fail more workouts):
Squat 425 5rm, theoretical 1rm of 480 or so.
Bench 255 5rm, theoretical 1rm of 290.
Deadlift (gotta start again), hoping to hit 500.
whoa your deadlift is going to be higher than your squat?
ReplyDeleteHaha, by maybe 20lbs, which is what happened last time.
