Not a bad day. Aim for today was to work on my timing out of the hole, I have a tendency sometimes to hit rock bottom and then push and it beats the shit out of my ankles. The 150 didn't feel great so dropped down a little, should have taken smaller jumps up to it and I'm confident I'd have had multiple triples there, plan for next week.

Rack deads felt a little better today, just trying to explode and keep my weight behind the bar. Last set felt pretty damn good.

Was fried and the session was getting long so killed the abs and called it.

Stretched when I got home, thought I'd write the routine I've been doing for the last few weeks as it's working really well. Hips and hams are real loose and my shoulder is getting there.

Loving the training at the minute ad recovering well between sessions. Roll on some PB's!

Nice work. Looks a lot easier than the RPEs suggest.

I can see why. Forgot how deep your squats are.

Solid work and roll out the PRs!

Ye, I may be guilty of being a pussy with the RPE's, especially on the rack pulls, work in progress though.

Been trying to cut them an inch or two below parallel on heavy days and save the ATG for assistance days, takes some getting used to though.

Thanks BtB.

If you're going too deep, crank up the weight. That'll fix it

[Kuytrider]

Big lifting J. Your squat speed and depth is excellent as always.
