Bench is definitely feeling good. It should basically just be a matter of slowly building up the next few months until I know I have it locked in. Keeping my fingers crossed that my shoulders stay feeling good

This is one of the sets of the 10x5 the other day. It's only 280, so not much weight on the bar. But this is how it moved for basically every set. Also I didn't have any shoulder pain after 10 sets. So that's a plus. Lol.
Nice pajamas lol

4x3 speed deadlifts

Lower back was a little tweaked from watching too much netflix yesterday. Lol. Made for some fun deadlifts. Everything moved pretty good though, top set was still only about an RPE 6, so definitely more left in the tank.

Fucked up my wrist messing with a new guy at work. Was trying to convince him you put in vinyl planks with your hands by punching them instead of using a mallet. Lol. Seemed funny at the time. On the bright side, I ate quite a bit and the weights moved easier than last week

Figured I'd hit a quick flex after one of my bench sets last night. About 212 in this picture. Don't know if I'll actually have legit 18's by the end of may, but I'm still getting up to 225 and hitting some prs. Lol.

Overall pretty good session. Deads felt a lot heavier than they looked on video. Felt like rpe 9, looks like a 7 at best

Easy day today. This is supposed to be my "deload" week. He showed me what I'm doing next week. Everything looks pretty manageable except the single at 585 on deads. That alone will be rough, it'll be interesting to see how he builds it up from there as the block progresses. I don't know how much more weight I can handle conventional

Well, can still pull 6 plates conventional. Actually was decently smooth. Especially considering I slept on the couch last night and my neck was all kinked up. Made it hard to get in position right because all I could feel was my neck. Lol.

Switching back to sumo. Kind of strained my lower back a bit on the 585 deadlift. Didn't have time to recover for squats the other day and made those uncomfortable. So will go back to sumo and see if it heals up without taking time off.
