Notes - The squats were murder today.  That was fucking hard.  But I got it done, with some generous rest in there.  Didn't sleep all that well and just felt tired and run down before I started training, so I knew this was going to be pretty damn hard.  But I got it done. Bench was reasonably strong.  I am on a nice run on that lift right now.  DLs were - well they were fine but I was pretty damn tired.  But pulled pretty strong.

Notes - Super excited.  Another squat PR, but it may be time to try two triples next week instead of one set of 5 on ID.  OHP was strong.  DL, improved, only got 3 heavy singles last week at 405, one triple at 410 this week is an improvement.  The bench was my favorite.  5 singles at 305, I continue a slow assault on 315 - 3 plate bench.  I am close. I started this year benching 185.

Notes -  Overall a good training day.  I was pleased with the bench, it was strong, I nearly got the 5x5, just one rep shy.  Can keep moving up in weight.  Squats were good, depth was good, took a long time to warm up though.  Chins were pretty weak, I think I need more volume to drive change here.  I like the barbell curls to finish.

Notes - A good day.  Heavy squats for volume are absolutely getting tough, no doubt.  I'm pretty pleased with what I see on video in terms of bar control, bar speed, depth pretty good on most reps, even into the last sets.  It might be time for a slight back off in intensity on volume day, but so far I am still able to hit the heavy set of 5 on intensity day, so we will see what happens this Friday.  For OHP I have to say this is probably the best OHP day I have ever had.  I was hitting the right spot (midfoot) with the bar, very in balance, and was able to really drive the bar up through lockout.  The last rep on the last couple of sets of 4 was tough, but I got the reps.  I think the thing that probably sticks out most on the TM thus far is the strength I am gaining in the pressing movements.  Certainly hitting the bench and OHP 2x each per week has really helped.  The DL was fine, obviously pretty fatigued but I feel like I pulled these pretty fast and dragged the bar right up my legs.  Technique has gotten a little better.  I think it's still ok to pull 2x per week but we will see if I am able to pull the planned 410 this Friday for reps.

Notes - Squat - another PR set of 5, 460.  It was tough but looking on video, bar speed good, depth good.  Bench - another PR for 4 at 282.5, tried for 5, it wasn't close. DL - I declare victory after defeat, I couldn't break the bar at 415, was pissed, just said I have to get some heavy singles here, and moved 3 slow off the floor singles at 405, past the knee and lockouts were strong through.  So slow, very slow off the floor. OHP was actually very good with 5 successful PR singles at 202.5.  It would be super cool to press 2 plates on each side.  It's slow progress, but nonetheless progress is happening to that next milestone.

Notes -  Terrible night's sleep, baby was all over the place and I was tossing and turning.  Had a big impact today, was very fatigued.  Squats and the OHP were hard. The work got done.  The OHP is slowing down, it's difficult to get 5s now on multiple sets.  But today sucked.  On a different day this would have been better than this result.

Notes - Overall a good day.  Squats went very well, they are extremely hard, no doubt, but I am able to maintain form for all 5 sets.  Bar is not really slowing down either.  Rest between sets is very important, I do that, I can continue to make reps and inch up.  Bench was good, I felt strong, I had cramps on two of the sets which threw things off.  The cramps are from squatting first, and this does happen sometimes.  Same spot every time, right hip flexor. Pretty strong through at 257.5 5x5.  DL, I just dialed it way back, took 10% off the bar from last volume day of 345 x 5 x 2.  We'll see if this helps a little bit.  I am not quite sure how to approach the DL at this point.  I need to go back and read Practical Programming again.

Notes - A bit of a mixed bag here, though I'd like to say mostly good, other than the fact that my DL is completely stalled out, and I suspect I know why.  On squat - a PR set of 5 at 455.  That was super cool.  Looking at the video, last rep was tough, bar did slow down, but still ok speed.  Exciting to put 4 plates on each side plus a 25.  That was super cool.  Another PR on the OHP, nearly got a set of 5 with 185, just stalled out at the eyes on the last rep.  I think I will only move up 2.5lbs now on the OHP as progress is stalling trying to take these 5 lb jumps.  Bench - awesome to be able to say I hit a milestone here with a 300 lb bench, never done that before, and hit it with 5 singles and had some left in the tank.  I will keep inching this up, I see a 3-plate bench at 315 in my near future which is really exciting to say.  Now to the DL - I did not have it today.  Felt a lot of low back fatigue and when I got to my last warmup at 385 I could not even break the bar off the ground.  All of the 5/x5 squatting and pulling on Mondays is leaving my in a position of too much accumulated fatigue when I get to the one heavy pull on Fridays.  I think I need to drop the pulling on Mondays in favor of lighter pulls, maybe just chins even, or perhaps it's time to start trying some barbell rows.  I'm always squatting first and pulling in a fatigued state, and my DL has always lagged as a result, plus I think I am just built a little bit better for squat than the DL.  In any event it's a real downer.  I have some mental issues with this lift as well as I have lost a lot of confidence when pulling heavy given the frequent stalls.   I finished today with a few chins just to get in some extra work there.

Notes - Tough day, man those 5 x 5 squats are HARD.  Looking at the video, I keep good form all the way through the last rep and didn't cut depth.  Something to be proud of. Having to do 5x5 OHP right after is depressing, but I took a rest and got after it and that 5x5 was good, even though I am not getting all 5 sets these are good reps and I am getting stronger.  DLs were pretty good, I am trying to make a big chest and squeeze the bar off the floor.

Notes - Great training session.  PR set of 5 on the squat at 450.  PR set of 4 on bench at 280.  PR set of 4 on DL at 415.  PR for 5 singles in the OHP at 200.  Disappointed for sure to not get the 5th rep on the bench or DL, the DL is more frustrating, this lift is confounding me, but this was still a PR so that's cool.  Upper body lifts are going well.
