Lifting last week

 Monday, 3 June heavy

  • SQ: 4x5 @255
  • OHP: 4x2 @112.5
  • CR: 4x12
Squat was programmed for 4x5 at 255 pounds, but no. It was 4, 4, 3, 3. Same with OHP: 2, 2, 1, 1. Ugh. Tried something new with calf raises: Used the barbell and slid it up and down the squat rack. Tried it with 55 pounds. No prob. Added the 20# vest. Fine and easy. Next time will do heavier without the vest. 

Thursday, 6 June light
  • SQ: 2x5 @215
  • OHP: 2x5 @97.5
  • DL: 275x3
Squat easy. Same with OHP. Deadlift, not so much. Only one rep. I suck. Going to have to read in Barbell Prescription what I'm to do next. 

Saturday, 8 June medium
  • SQ: 3x5 @230
  • OHP: 3x3 @102.5
  • CR: 4x10
  • Superset: chin-ups and hammer curls
Squat was only 2 sets, not 3. OHP was as programmed. For the calf raises used the barbell again and loaded 95 pounds. Could only do 10 reps. Will go till 4x15 then up the weight. Chin-ups were 6, 10, 10, 10 with varying bands. Hammer curls with 20# db: 10, 8, 8, 8. 

Lots of swimming last week too: 7.5 miles over 5 hours. Lots of chop in National Harbor this past week. Had to fight the water.
