Decided to take 3 days off from my last training session.

Mainly because sore from sumo deadlifts (don't deadlift often so I'm unaccustomed the it's DOMS), and had stuff to do.

Also didn't want deal with this:

    • Only came up a few inches out of the hole.
    • Was thinking about re-attempting this, but I'll wait until later.

Paused Front Squat

  • 420 x 3 * PR!
    • +15 lb PR from last week!
    • Originally wanted 2 reps for a 2RM, but 2nd rep felt OK so I tried for a 3rd. Got it, but it was a little tough.
    • 420 lb is even higher than my non-paused front squat 3RM (410 lb), and the weight matches my 2 rep max, meaning I should go for another 3RM and 2RM on the regular front squat soon (on top of a paused front squat 2RM).
