D4B3 Press

October 25, 2017
Afternoon

D4B3 Press. Went to a different chiropractor yesterday. I typically haven't regarded them super high in the past but I figured I'll try a different, well regarded one and see how it goes. Really cracked up my low back and right shoulder so I'm going to try and not undo that work today by holding back a bunch. I'll go back in Friday again as well.

Seated BTN Press WU to 135 x 8 x 3r
- unracking really hurt. Good after I get the first rep in of each set.

D2B3 bench. Going to start watching my weekly volumes and intensities now that I'm getting acclimated again. I think pressing I'll shoot for 75-100r at 70-85% average intensity (escalating throughout the winter), squat will be a similar intensity for 50-75r, and pulls in around 20-25r.

D1B3 Squat

October 13, 2017
Before Supper

D1B3 squat. Got absorbed in video games yesterday and didn't get my squatting done then. Anyways, did a look back through my log and surprised the hell out of myself; I haven't even put 405 on my back since last December on the 27th. Dieting then Highland games deterred me from doing anything but rep work. Time to put 500+ back on there by Xmas.

Squat
WU to 405 x 3
