is it a local meet? I know you're local to me, only reason I'm asking. I'd love to check one out and see how far off am from the real powerhouse guys!

Yeah I never did the full thing, I usually just do the 4 weeks of high volume, I think it's the "mesocycle" I'll have to check, but I love doing that everyonce in a while to increase my workload capacity

NEVER! Hahaha
Thanks LS......Its been a very long road full of aches an pain but thats the name of our game hahaha. I'll never be a Phil Heath an thats ok. Im very happy with the progress I have made thus far. Theirs nuthin to it but to do it. Rep by rep, set by set, an one day at a time
Its always a pleasure to see you aroun brotha
Hope all has been good in your neck of the woods. Skulls still puttin in the work over here
If you're comfortable giving me a heads up on where and when that would be sweet. No worries if not, I completely understand wanting to stay anonymous.
I feel like most PL meets local to us are not listed online. I don't see many. Kinda like if my gym hosted one or something, that's what we have more often than not, locally.
I been laying off the heavy front squats for the past 2 months. That FS 495 1 rpm goal is gonna take a back seat.
Been switching gears as i like my legs as shredded as they are strong. Having both is nice
Meadows has me switching things all up.
Todays leg day was:
Leg curls to failure (multiple sets)
Leg presses to failure (multiple sets)
Front squats
Glute kickbacks
I dont ever do em in that order and ill tell ya after i smoke my hams then smoke my quads i have to do front squats?!?
then after everything is blown out i do glute specific work
Oy...its really hard work. Different than i usually do it but i like it

Try banded leg press. Meadows is a huge fan of those. I'm gonna be doing a lot of them too. I want 32" legsI been laying off the heavy front squats for the past 2 months. That FS 495 1 rpm goal is gonna take a back seat.

Madcow 5*5 tagged on 20kgs/44lbs to my max so far. 5*5 seems to work well on the squats for me. I should be hitting 200kgs/440lbs by summer.

That's simply do to volume at certain percentages. If you did sets of 5 for a few weeks, then 3s and 2s and finally singles you'd probably get there a lot faster.
Sets of 5 is always the slowest growth for me. 10's and triples are best... 5's are my rest weeks
Squatted 500lbs in knee sleeves today and then 550lbs in knee wraps. Was a good day.

Squatted 365 beltless high bar today after 4 ramp up sets. Probably could do a paused ATG 405 beltless high bar. Don't know what it is but my high bar feels much more comfortable then my low bar now, I can still squat about 40lb more low bar then high bar but just feels unnatural now.
