2011-09-23 Intensity

Warmup

Squat: 45, 95, 135, 185, 225, 275
332.5lbs - 3
355lbs - 1
375lbs - 5
Nice and psyched up for the 5 set
4th rep was slow and all of them were at least somewhat GMed
Epic roar before 5th
Epic roar at end of 5th
Epic roar after rerack
Many people applauding, lol.

Bench: 45, 95, 135, 185
205lbs - 1
225lbs - 5
Paused
Mother fuck
This should not have been as hard as it was
That said, I credit a lot of it to not being in the same place mentally as the squats; for those I basically just blasted straight from 45 to 275. Here I took too much downtime and wasn't as focused.

Deadlift: 135, 185, 225, 275, 315, 365
430lbs - 1
Wasn't here mentally
Thinking I'll gauge things mentally from week to week. If I get 3, add 10lbs, do as many reps as I'm comfortable with. If it's >3, add 5lbs next week; hopefully that'll have me fully recovered and getting 3. Iono.
