    • Week 6 day 3

      Deadlift with belt: [email protected]; 405x5x1@9; 375x5x3. Four to five minutes rest.

      Two-count paused bench: 185x5x1@7; 190x5x1@8; 195x5x1@9; 185x5x3. Four to five minutes rest.

      Squat, no belt: 135x8x1@5; 185x8x1@6; 230x8x3@8. Three minutes rest. I thought 230 would be an RPE 6 today, and was planning on working up to 3 sets of 8 with 250 but when I got to 230 after my warmups the bar felt heavier than expected...

      DB curl: 35x12x4@8. Three minutes rest.

      Triceps press down: 67.5x15x4@8. Two to three minutes rest.

              Normally I would have done 5 sets of DB curls and triceps press downs at the end of the workout but it was getting pretty warm in the garage so I'll save them for tomorrow morning's GPP workout.

                Comp bench: [email protected]; [email protected]; 212.5x3x3@8-9. Four to five minutes rest. I misread the instructions for the last 3 sets. I should have had about 205 on the bar.

                      They're still feeling kind of heavy. I'll probably repeat the same weight next week to see if it feels like a solid RPE 8. Squats seem to be progressing slowly too. Maybe it's the heat.

                        Squat with belt: 317.5x1x1@8; 297.5x4x1@8; 275x4x3. Four minutes rest.

                        Touch and go bench: 230x1x1@8; 186.25x5x5. Four minutes rest.

                        Two-inch deficit deadlift: 295x4x1@6; 310x4x1@7; 325x4x1@8; 310x4x1. Three to four minutes rest.

                        Squats felt strong today for the first time in a long while. Guess it's taking the old body some time to get used to heavy sets again.

                          Pin squat, no belt: 300x1x1@8; 280x4x1@9; 265x4x2. Four minutes rest.

                          Close-grip floor press: 165x6x1@6; 175x6x1@8; 180x6x2@9; 180x5x1@10. Three minutes rest. Missed the last rep of the last set. The last three sets were all supposed to be at RPE 8 so I overshot a bit today.

                          Upper back work, amrap in 7 minutes. Single arm DB row with 70 pounds 22 total reps; lat pull down with 110 pounds: 22 total reps.

                            Deadlift with belt: 430x1x1@8; 401.25x4x1@8; 375x4x3. Four to five minutes rest.

                            Pin bench: 230x1x1@8; 215x4x1@9; 200x4x3. Four to five minutes rest.

                            Two-count squat, no belt: 237.5x6x1@8; 245x6x1@9. Three minutes rest. Misjudged the weight on these. I looked at last week's workout, mistakenly thinking that it was a paused squat when in fact it was a regular, unbelted squat, so I loaded too much on the bar for these paused squats. Called it a day after two sets. I was supposed to do sets of 6 at RPE 6, 7, and 8.

                            Did some GPP yesterday--an hour of walking on a treadmill, plus DB rows, lat pull downs, and abs.
