Notes:
Solid Session. I felt very fresh and strong coming off my deload week. I did a proper deload this time and actually did the deload sessions, as opposed to just not doing shit all together.
I've really adjusted to the low carbs. I feel completely back to normal in all facets of my life, including my training session.

Nice OHP Josh! I have a tendancy to no-load vs deload also. Sometimes makes that first session or two a little tougher than it should be!

I feel much better when I actually do the deload vs. not doing shit. It's night and day.

Default 12/19/12 Cycle 8 Week 1 Power Clean and Squat

Power Clean
95x5
110x5
125x5(Goal 5)

Squat
220x5
255x5
290x5 (Goal 5)

Good Morning
105x10,125x10,145x8

decline bench crunches
bwx20,20,15

Overall Workout Grade: A

Notes:
First 5/3/1 session with Power Cleans. I test my 1rm last week and set my working max at 90%. 1st session was pretty light. It is hard to actually do the ramping sets and even the working sets at this weight. I had to hang the weight at about the same position it would be if I had 45's on each side.
It worked well, but was kind of awkward at first.
Squats felt solid. I had a couple fail squat sessions last cycle, but I felt it was the diet change more than an actual stall (also considering the weight I was using was already a reset to 90%, I thought there was no way this was an actual stall).
So I didn't increase the weight for this cycle. Anyway, long story short I am quite sure it was just the diet change as my squat goal this session was smashed with relative ease.

Interesting you are running PC's as a 531 core lift. Cannot wait to see how that works out - you just may be onto something.

Certainly a good sign if squats are going well! Glad to hear diet is sorted to pave the way for some upcoming PR's.
