squat 265x5x3
press 160x5x3
chin 6/5/5

Press ties a 3x5 PR, and I haven't been there for ~4 years. Got an extra chin; nice to see progress there. Squat is still feeling fine; I don't expect a grind until 275 at least.

Airdyne :20/:20/:20

That's all I could get. Had planned to do the C2 in the campus gym, but ended up having to do it at home, where I have the Airdyne. It's just too much. I'd need months of prep on the rower or Prowler before I could do 8 solid intervals on the bike.

[Crockett]

squat 270x5x3
press 162.5 (5/4/4/2)

Pushing deadlift to Wednesday. Squat was no problem. Although I didn't get 3 sets, the first press set was a 5-rep PR.

[Crockett]

deadlift 370x5
bench 210 (5/5/4/1)

Last two reps of DL were a grind, and I probably took 10-15 seconds between, so not clear that this was truly a 'set'. Not sure why it has been so difficult, other than that is has been many years since I was pulling these weights. Was a bit surprised to get first two sets of bench, because my warmups felt terrible.

rower 8x

Brand-new, perfect condition C2 in the West Campus fitness center. Happy to have gone all 8 rounds. Doing it on an off-day helps a lot. Resistance set to 8. Splits were around 1:20 at the beginning, and closer to 1:30 by the end.

press 162.5 (4/5/4/2)
squat 275x5x3
pullup 5/5/5

I'm being a little generous with the pullups --- probably more like 4.5 per set. Same result as last time on press, although 5 in the middle set. Probably wasn't fully warmed up for the first. Weirdly, my third squat set was the most explosive. If today is any indication, 280 shouldn't be difficult.

[Crockett]

squat 280x5x3
bench 210 (5/4/4/2)
chin 7/6/5

Bench is slipping, as I expected. Squat was no problem, and again, the third set felt the most powerful. Usually it's the second, so not sure what that's about.

These are 0:20 on, 1:40 off, btw. Splits in the first 3 rounds were under 1:20, with a low of 1:17. By the final rounds, more like 1:23-1:25.

squat 285x5x3

Had surgery last week, so skipped two workouts. No upper body until Wednesday, doc's orders.

[Crockett]

light squat 225x5x2
bench 210 (3/2/3/2/2/2/1)

First upper body work in a week.

[Crockett]

squat 290x5x3
press 162.5 (4/4/4/3)
deadlift 375 (1/1/1)

Squat was fine. Feeling heavy, but not a grind yet. Was a little surprised that press even went that well, given the break. Deadlift was a mistake. I need a serious deload there. Could have done 5 (these were singles maybe 10-15s apart), but had the slightest little tweak at the top, in extension (which is dangerous territory). Feels fine now; we'll see about tomorrow. It's the one lift I really hate doing in the apartment, because I feel I have to set the bar down so gingerly.
