2011-10-28 Intensity

Warmup (including overhead squats)

Squat: 45, 95, 135, 185, 225, 275, 315
355lbs - 1
395lbs - 2, 1, 1
Got in a good mental state for 395, roared, started to set up, and one of the four guys in front of me jumped up and started doing pull-ups.
...without going into the complete details of how much I wonder about the survival instincts of a 130lb guy who willingly gets in front of a 200lb guy setting up under a 400lb barbell having made the kind of noise one would normally attribute to an enraged bear, and glossing over the part where I basically just cussed him out until he dropped down and got out of the way*, my mental state was mildly fucked up and while I could probably have taken it for at least 3 in one set, I only did 2.
Went for a single about 10 minutes later, which was REALLY easy and probably should have been another double, if not a triple. Seriously, it was fucking perfect.
Went for another one about 10 minutes after that, which was terrible and ugly and shit.

*Not exactly a glowing reflection on the maturity of powerlifters.

Floorcrusher:
82.5lbs - 3x5
The Oly-looking bar weighs 25lbs, the others weight about 20. Wish I could use the Oly one every time, but oh well.

Deadlift: 135, 185, 225, 275, 315, 365
435lbs - 2
Wasn't mentally there for this, probably due to my having been in the gym for about 3 hours by the time I went for it.
440 for 1 next time. With ammonia, and less talking.

Incline DB Retraction - 3x10, 10lbs
Prone "Y" - 3x10 (did the latter 2 with thumbs pointed down, which made it a LOT harder)
Prone Internal Rotation - 1x10 w/ 2.5lbs, 2x10 with bare hands. My range of motion has improved a lot - I've got 30-45 degrees now.
