Training May 8, 2015

Happy to be back at it today.  Back Squat Friday.

Back Squat
1 RM
390 lbs. (WOOHOO!!!)

Finally got over the 385 hump!  This has been almost two years in the making.  Next stop 400 (hopefully before I am 50)!

365, 390

AMRAP

Back Squat

85% of 1 RM 30x0 Tempo

330 lbs.

2 Reps

Well, the god of squat gives and the god of squat takes away...

The 390 apparently took a lot out of me, but I was expecting a few more reps here.

Weighted Pull-Up

1 RM Strict

105 lbs. + 182 lbs. Bodyweight = 287 lbs.

1 lbs. off my PR on the added weight, but I don't know what I weighed back then.  I did find out today that I have gained 4 lbs. since the end of February.  Might need to lay off those damn coconut pie Lara Bars.

AMRAP 4

Strict Pull Ups

42

Started with sets of five (the first set was a beauty), but that didn't last too long.  I really messed this one up.  I think I must have been still gloating about my back squat PR because I feel like I gave a really half-ass effort here. Oh well, back squat PR.
