Morning Weight 208.0lbs (+10.0lbs)
After 2 days off & a week & a half off legs, hit the gym for max effort legs. Never supposed to use the main lifts for the max effort day until you're trying to PR in Westside's programming - you always use some variant of the big 3 instead to keep your body guessing. But tonight, I just needed to squat.
Max Lower
Barbell Backsquat 135x8, 225x3, 315x3, 365x3, 405x1, 425x1, -finally add belt here- 465x1 (PR, +15lbs to total)
Traditional Deadlift 225x10, 315x8, 365x8, 405x8
My dad called after the 405 & I didn't wanna push the hammy since it was the first night back so I hung it up for the night. Still, awesome workout. Came back from a bleeding hamstring to a 15lb PR out of nowhere - I just felt strong as an ox, as I have been lately. And never even squat 405 unbelted til tonight, let alone 425. My total of 295 bench, 465 squat, & 535 dead = 1295.....if I lift 5 more lbs this cycle, I'll have my 1300lb gym total. And I haven't tried to max on dead in months :fing02:
