Notes - Toughest training session of my life, most weight lifted for sure. Squatting 440 for 3 sets of 5, benching 292.5 for 15 singles, topped off by a top set of 5 at 345 for the DL. Took me damn near 3 hours start to finish, though there was some down time in there. Man squatting that heavy is so hard and it takes it out of you. I am now going on vacation for 2 weeks, I will be back for a day when I can hit the barbell in the middle of this trip, otherwise its all kettlebells. I am going to keep it extremely simple - double front squats, double overhead presses for the main movements. A lot of rack holds. Some floor pressing. I've been almost exclusively barbell in 2020, and really pushed myself, so I am going to appreciate this time period, rest and recover, and then come back in a few weeks ready to deload a bit and then try and run up another NLP if possible. I don't think that will be particularly effective for the pressing movements however. I really probably need a Texas method volume day and an intensity day each week for those lifts. I will have to think about it. I think NLP will still work for squats and DLs.
