7/9 ME Squats and deads

I was feeling pretty tired for a few days and wasn't expecting much out of this training session. I just couldn't seem to get enough rest and felt sluggish. So the plan was to do what i could and treat it like a natural deload week.

warm-up, gpp
bar x10
155x10
225x6
265x3
add 12" box
320x1
341x1
365x1
385x1
407x1
420x1 (pr)
425x1 (pr)
i was surprised that i was able to hit a pr today, the weights never really felt heavy but everything defiantly felt slow.

back of sets 5x2-3@ 365
these felt awful and slow and heavy.

Deads
i worked up to 496 for a single then did some back off sets 3x5@385...im taking a new approach to my deadlifts. my deadlift hasn't moved in months so im taking a step back and adding more volume in at lighter weights. i will be working at a 5x5 for a little while and see if i can get some solid gains out of it like i have in the past. i will also be adding higher rep pulls on my dynamic day like a snatch grip and will be adding rack/box pulls.


ab wheel roll out 4x10


wasnt a great workout other than my squat pr. i have accepted that i cannot be my best every workout and that everyone will have there good lifts and bad lifts, just the way it goes. i have accepted it but i dont have to like it!
