Squats & Deadlifts

Now that 365 is over, I am going to change things up a bit for a while. I have an idea on what I am going to do, but I have not written it out as of yet. After tonight, I probably won't lift weights for another week, so this blog will be a little quiet.

Squat

138/5, 138/5, 158/4, 188/3, 248/2
278/5, 303/2, 303/2, 303/2, 258/5

Front Squat

178/5, 178/5, 178/5

Deadlift

228/5, 278/5, 318/5, 368/1

Upped the weight overall.... kept the reps low...easing back into the heavier weights. Getting a feel for them, as I haven't squatted that much weight in quite some time. In addition, I haven't done a traditional deadlift in months, so I kept the volume low and focused mostly on form.

The set of squats @ 278/5 was a really good, crisp set. The second rep on all three sets of 303/2 was slow, however.

All of the deadlift sets were easy. Left some in the tank with the 368 and used 1 rep as a starting point going forward.

Looking to play basketball on Monday. Other than that, still doing some holiday stuff through New Year's Day.
