No problems with my leg today. I guess the week off was perfect. I'm just considering the Smolov experiment as a couple of high-volume weeks & now I'm back to 5/3/1 on my squats now. I'll be squatting twice a week. I'll also be benching twice a week - looking forward to some gains before the PL meet on Jan 12th. I have 9 weeks.
Squats felt pretty good today, but I was talking to a buddy of mine right before the last set & ended up taking way too long of a break. As a result, the last set was all over the place, GM'd every rep - just ugly. Still tied a rep PR, though, so not bad. I'm up to 445 as my training max right now for squats on 5/3/1 - so these next 2 cycles won't be easy (408 is my current PR).
Woah. You are seriously flying the flag for us older guys. Great stuff.
385*5? And only saying your PR is 408. Im guessing that 445 number is even low
I Think.ill load that on the bar next time too. Hell what's the worst that can happen
Noooooooooooo please tell me this isn't real!!! Oh god. I really try not to think about these things but sometimes it passes through my mind right before I'm about to squat
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
In other news, today must have been Smokin Hot Girl Day at the gym. I sure am glad I decided to lift today.
We're having a Grand Opening of the new Testai Jiu-jitsu on Dec 1 & we're also having a belt ceremony & promotion. My instructor told me that I should be there - which might mean I'm getting my purple belt. Seems crazy & a little early to me, but would also be cool... Of course maybe I just heard what I unconsciously wanted to hear.
That would be cool, hope it happens for you.
