I could feel it in my left bicep after the last few sets of bench press. Boo and hiss.

Although it has been fine while squatting, it has been awful the day after. When watching a frontal angle of Friday’s squats this past weekend, I noticed there was a difference in the distance between my knee and foot for each leg. It makes my pelvis tilted too.

I experimented yesterday by putting a piece of 1/2 inch plywood under my right foot. It was the first time in forever where I felt balanced on each rep of my working sets. Plus, my hip feels the same as yesterday. Not too shabby.

A poor night of sleep contributed to an energy dump after the third set of bench. I could barely lock out the last rep of the final two sets.

Failed third rep on top press set. After unracking, the left plate hit the j hook. Seems like a good enough scapegoat.

You're pulling some real weight in here; glad to see your hip is doing better

Squats are finally starting to feel heavy. My form was a little off today. My lower back feels sore.

During bench, I tried looking at one spot on the ceiling. It helped keeping my upper back tight. My proprioception was way off though.

My right hip and lower back felt awful all weekend. Even so, no hip problems while squatting today. I’m going to try foam rolling all around my greater trochanter in hopes that helps.

Some 20kg KBS EMOM for ten minutes.

First time conventional pulling three plates for five reps in a few years. There should be plenty of progress left.

Squats have felt terrible the past two Fridays, the opposite of it feels on Mondays. I tend to work from home in Fridays. By going into work on Mondays, I have about a ten minute walk home from the bus stop. I have a feeling that plays a part.

Press was supposed to be 137.5x3 and 122.5x4x5. Yikes at my results.

Probably won’t be that big of a deal anymore. I think I am going to do a PL towards the end of the year. Once I get into training, press will just be an accessory. I figured I should do a meet before I have a kid, which will happen at the end of the year. I’m not expecting to be competitive, but it should be fun.

Legs feel wrecked from squats. My hip, IT bands, and right hip appreciate squatting a top set and two back off sets.

Deadlifts flew up. PRs will be incoming on a regular basis.

I just learned I have been doing the valsalva maneuver wrong for forever. It will take a while before it doesn’t sound like I am choking while lifting.

I’ve decided to squat lighter on Fridays. My legs seem to need the recovery.

Early AM workout next Monday. I’m flying out to Philadelphia in the afternoon and will be there until Friday morning. Luckily the hotel I am staying at provides access to a local gym. Starting next week, I will be lifting four days a week.
