Temp SQ: 60x8 90x8x2
-- This day proves to be a very bad day. I felt sick after that, maybe because of doing many sets with almost no rest. In the next week, I need to adjust DL intensity and also avoid playing with my squat grip and also handle the sickness (if there is any).

Day 1 / Week 3 20-04-19

Notes before the workout:
1. From the last session, I decided to get back to a narrower grip for squats. I felt that the wide grip is the cause of discomfort in my elbow.
2. I caught a cold, so I thought I may need to get back to the low-stress week (week#1).
3. I also decided to do the warmups as prescribed by BBM (keeping the same rep scheme).

Workout:

squats [email protected] [email protected] or maybe 7.5 / I failed to do any rep at 140 and ended up on the safety pins.

Notes after the workout:
This was nota good workout at all. It took a lot of time for a low-stress workout, and I failed unpredictably at a relatively light squat weight. Maybe I needed to respect my sickness more than I did. And I was very embarrassed by my failure. Some lessons for myself:
1. If something like your squat grip works, leave it be.
2. Respect the fact you are sick, feel very bad and etc.
3. Be humble, nobody gives a damn about your failure.

DL [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] I was forced to use a smaller plate, and I couldn't tolerate the belt. So this was somehow a deficit deadlift.
