Squats:
Tom: 400x5
IDK, check the video and you tell me? Squatted in .75" heels. Felt sooo
much better and tighter. Maybe I should do some mobility work.
Zach: 155x5x3
Form is improving every session. These looked easy.
Bench:
Tom: 235x4x1
Of all places, I actually missed this at lockout. Really strange. That
has NEVER happened before. I'm going to incorporate the stuff I talked
to SR about. In fact, I started today. Going for 232.5x5x3 next time.
I'll return to microloading. I've gotten all the 5lbs jumps I'm going to
get.
Zach: 160x5x3
Last reps on a couple of the sets were really tough, but, hey, this was good stuff. Another PR in the bag.
Cleans:
Tom: 200x1x1
This was not that great of a day. I think this may have to do with
deadlifts being on Wednesday, but who knows? I took a 10lbs jump.
Obviously, my days of doing that are done. 195# next Wednesday.
Zach:
Cleans: 115x3x5
Smoked 'em. Zach's cleans are looking very good.
Wide-grip Pullups:
Tom:
235x5x2 /w orange light band, 235x2 with body weight
Has it really come to this? I suck at pullups/chins. I'll be doing them
twice a week from now on. Chins on Saturday. Pullups/Curls on Wednesday.
Chinups:
Zach:
180x5x3
Tough sets, but he was able to get them, dead-hang. Pull height was upper chest.
Dips:
Tom: 240x5, 240x8
These were not hard, but they were harder than I expected. Triceps are
definitely the weak links in my presses right now. 250 next Wednesday.
I'm going to do them like this, 2x5, 1x5+. I'll stop at 8 no matter
what. I have no desire to do a 15 rep set or something like that.
Curls:
Tom: 45x5, 55x5, 65x5, 75x5, 85x5
85 was embarrassingly hard. I will repeat 85 next time with 2x5, 1x5+. The bicep/forearm pump was pretty fun though.
Zach: 45x5, 55x5, 65x5, 75x5, 85x4
He did these with me because he has a like 4-5 days off of lifting due to softball. Curls 4 teh gurlz.
