Notes

  • Form on the power cleans felt sloppy, but it got up anyway.

  • Didn't feel 100% today...Lacking the aggressive energy that I usually have on PR Fridays :/

New 1RM PR on the (military) press at 97.5kg (214.5lbs)!

Power Clean

67.5 kg (148.5lbs): 3,3,3,3,3

Squat

160 kg (352lbs): 5,5,5,5,5

Press

80 kg (176lbs): 5,5,5,5,5

Notes

  • Eating a lighter breakfast seem to make me less fatigue during the workout
  • Engaging in self-talk to hype myself up seems to work to get me through each set.  Especially squat.
  • Finally did 5x5 on press first try. Not sure if I can keep on making 2.5 kg jumps. Might be time to invest in fractional plates?
