    One thing I forgot to note; I usually self-handoff, and I notice that aggravates my shoulder. New gym has the rogue mono attachments, so I was able to just press, then rack. Maybe it’s a thing, I dunno.

    272.8 SQUATS 385x2x4 385x6 RPE 9 SSB 225x8x4 120 face pulls. I’m dumb, and couldn’t figure out the powerblock dumbbells to do rows, so I called it. Overall I’m pretty happy with today. I think I’m getting stronger, and I’m gaining confidence in my squat every week. This is the last squat...

    273.6 Kinda discouraging day from a shoulder perspective; I had to back way off on incline DB presses, and I needed a band for dips. One step back, 2 forward I’m hoping. INCLINE NG DB PRESS 25x35x2 BW PULL UPS 8,8,8,8,6 DIPS +Green bandx8x4 120 face pulls, some tricep stuff.

    I’m hoping. I’m on a reverse diet now so I’m going to start pushing reps on my amraps, and training around other powerlifter has yielded great things for me in the past.

    Holding steady at 273.something. I found a gym. Not a gym, but a GYM. 5 Sorinex racks, with jammer arms and belt squat attachment. Kabuki bars-transformer, power, Duffalo and trap. GHR. Prowlers, 3 of em. I found the grail, fellas. Secondary bench today.

    Thanks for your insight man. I like working up to that ~100% single as well, with intensity building over several weeks. I’ll see how things progress. Thank you.

    So we’re calling a diet audible. I’ve got 10 weeks left with Skip, but after 8 months in deficit, I need a break. I’ve eaten like a normal human the last 3 days, and I’m holding around 272. We’re going to get to maintenance and use the NPP as a tool to recomp at 275. Bring on the gainzzzzz.

    Also of note; started NPP Sunday at 150g/week. I know it’s low, but I am new to this stuff so I want to see how I respond. Just trying to maintain muscle as my cut gets a little tougher. Test is 350mg. My weight bounced up a bit today, but I’m sure in a few weeks that’ll fall off.

    :lol: I meant test the AMRAP at the end of the macro and just see where I’m at. Not AMRAPS during the micro. But I get what you’re saying homey.

    I did read Evolutions, and kind of dismissed the extended peaking cycle due to the fact he states it’s mostly elite athletes that need it. 2 things I thought about regarding my part in this; 1) I’m in deficit, and calling it at 5 reps for the AMRAP. I’m not getting the time/reps under the bar...

    So 5thSet gurus- USPA is planning a meet in Nebraska for mid-late March of 2021. I should be good with pressing by then, so I plan to compete. I’ll complete diet on 11:15, I’ll complete my 1st macrocycle around 12/25 (if I don’t fail out), which would give me 11-14 weeks of 5thSet going into...

    Honestly Skip nailed my plan from the start. The only adjustments we’ve made are to load times. My macros are dead ass on.
