Notes:
Not too shabby. My hip flexors were tight as hell and it wasn't until the second or third set of 415 that they loosened up and I could descend comfortably. I think the most I had ever done for a 5x5 workout was 402x5x5, and that was only in December, so big workout PR. Looking forward to getting tomorrow over with and getting out of town for a bit this weekend. Way too much shit going on in my real life.
Forgot to mention I did a bunch of grip work and jump rope on Tuesday. Did some 4 dime pinches, DOH axle holds, and sledge levering with 100 jumps in between the circuit.

Your squatting is beastly. You are getting closer and closer to 600.....
What do you do for the DOMS/soreness/recovery?

2/4/10 - Thursday - Smolov Base Cycle Week 2 Day 4
Back Squat:
154x10
264x5x2
352x3
396x1
440x3x10 (+belt)
Notes:
Whew, that was pretty rough. I think is a 3RM PR, but I never really hit a max triple. But I repeated it 10 times which is pretty sick. My right elbow was bothering me some which made this a pain later on. Need to ice it and take some NSAID's. And sleep and eat a ton. I'm literally hungry all day long.

2/8/10 - Monday - Smolov Base Cycle Week 3 Day 1
Back Squat:
135x10x2
225x5
315x5
375x9x4
Pause Bench:
135x5
225x5
275x1
315x3x8
DB Bench:
90'sx10
100'sx10
100'sx13
One of those days where I don't want to leave. I wound up with 3 days off the way the past few days worked so I was well rested. Everything felt super strong. No belt on the squats, Tony the Freak did his beltless and I couldn't let my protegee show me up. After building myself back up on the bench lately I decided to push it today. No pain or tweaks, form felt spot on, big workout PR. Snowmaggedon II is supposed to unleash further hell on us tomorrow, so hopefully I can get to the gym.

2/9/10 - Tuesday - Smolov Base Cycle Week 3 Day 2
Back Squat:
135x10
225x5
315x3
365x1
400x7x5 (+belt)
Left work early because of impending snow emergency. This means I squatted back to back days with only 18 hours rest between sessions. This was not a good idea. I definitely overdid the benching yesterday during the hardest week of Smolov. Very sore, stiff, and my wonky elbow was killing me.. But we shall overcome *raises hands to sky*
