Smolov Jr. Testing & Back to Deadlifting!

I only managed 265 in my Smolov Jr. testing on Friday. It is a modest PR, but it was kind of disappointing. I tried 275 twice and missed. I felt like I was so close to pushing through, but ultimately couldn't.

On another note, I am happy to report that I am healthy enough to deadlift again and to at least box squat. For the time being, I am not going to run a program. My goal here is to just keep ramping up. At some point, though, I will go back to Beyond 531.

Tonight's workout:

Sumo Deadlift
155/8, 205/5, 265/5, 315/5, 315/5, 315/5

Box Squat
135/8 (18" box)
135/6, 185/6, 185/6, 225/3, 225/3 (16" box)

Paused Hip Thrusts, Abs, and other PT exercises

Glad to be back!
