Another week, just getting the work in, and decided to dial back the intensity on the squat, while pushing the OHP and deadlift hard. My plan for now is to push the squat on Day 1 and Day 3, and just play the deadlift by ear. Ideally, I don’t want to kill myself on squats and deadlifts every workout as that will just burn me out over time.
A1. Low Bar Squat – 3×5/5/5+ @ 215 lbs
- 45x10x2
- 95x5x2
- 135×5
- 185×3
- 205×1
- 215x5x2
- 215×5+ (10 @ 9RPE)
B1. Seated OHP – 3×5/5/5+ @ 90lbs
- 45x10x2
- 65×5
- 85×3
- 90x5x2
- 90x5x5+ (10 @ 9 RPE)
C1. Conventional Deadlift – 3×3/3/3+ @ 215lbs
- 45×10
- 135×5
- 185×3
- 205×1
- 225x3x2
- 225×3+ (15 @ RPE 8)
Pretty happy with this overall, as I was able to match reps on the deadlift with last workout without too much challenge. The main issue that I am having is my grip, but just doing these AMRAP sets should help over time as I keep progressing.
