5/9/12
Squats:
Tom: 135x5, 225x5, 275x5, 335x5, 390x5, 445x5
+5 next time. Depth is questionable. Work on depth in warmups. Knees out.
Zach: 200x5x3
180 next time. Overall reset needed. Fatigue setting in. Several reps were high.
Press:
Tom: 160x5x3
+2.5 next time. Must use aggression and think about bar speed.
Zach: 120x5, 120x4
107.5 next time. Part of the general reset.
Pendlay Rows:
Tom: 185x5x3
+5 next time. Belt up and use straps.
Deadlift:
Zach: 270x5
+5 next time. Very good set. Cue him to get hips all the way through. Starting too far away from bar.
Overall and in general:
I've decided to keep running my bastardized Madcow's setup. I'm going to
go for 5x5 deadlift next Wednesday with 315x5 as my top set. I figure
that when I eventually have to reset my squat, things will sort
themselves out. Madcow's has worked for thousands and thousands of
people. If my fatigued deadlift is going up, my real deadlift is going
up. My situation is kind of weird, but I'm not a special snowflake.
Everything will be okay if I'm patient. My idea is to eventually
transition my way to Madcow's EXACT program.
