Dammit, aiming for a 2RM with 137.5 kg (302.5 lb.) on the #BenchPress but settled for 5 sets of 1 (managed to do 3 sets of 1 rep 2 weeks ago).

Bar touching chest of course.

Power Clean

72.5 kg (159.5 lb.): 3,3,3,3,3

Squat

172.5 kg (379.5 lb.): 5

• 1 vertical jump before set
• Last 2 reps were difficult
• If squeeze back, core feels more stable

Bench Press

137.5 kg (302.5 lb.): 1,1,1,1,1

• 2nd set failed on 2nd rep
• Struggled half way on 4th set

Deadlift

197.5 kg (434.5 lb): 3,3

Dips

90 lbs: 5,5,5

Notes:

Body weight: 87.7 kg (192.9 lb)

Squat

• Performing a vertical jump before the main work set of squat seem to make it easier.
• Consciously squeezing my shoulder blades, upper back & lats together makes my core feel much more rigid during the set. Doesn't feel like the weight is going to fold my body in half.

Bench

• Gripping the bar as hard as possible before unracking the bar makes the rep feel easier.

Dips

• The heavier the dumbbell, the more of a pain in the ass it is to wrap my dipping belt around it and wear it.

Deadlift

• Check my paper log; was supposed to do 200 kg (440 lbs) this week but forgot I did them last week -_-;;
