I'm running "everything every other day" to catch up from the holiday. I may actually continue that for a little longer if it works out - I didn't have as hellish a time with this as I expected.
Warmup
Incline Bench -
45x5
55x5
65x5
75x5
85x5
95x5
105x3
120x5x3
I used the benches in the main room, so I was pressing from a lower angle. I'm not sure if I prefer that to the 45-degree; I don't think I feel a difference between them, honestly, though the benches in the annex are better quality-wise.
Thatcher's already repping out 135, so I guess I have a minimum milestone. I'm interested to see how my bench improves once I start pressing flat again (by the end of January). I rested about one minute from set one to set two and then around 5 going into set 3.
Deadlift -
135x5
165x5
195x5
225x3
255x1
285x5x3
I'm still working on technique here; feet wider and hips lower definitely seems to give me better drive, at least. I think the kung fu slippers will work well on a platform in competition, but they do slip on the RSF floor. I rested about three minutes for these.
Press -
45x5
60x5
75x5
95x3
110x5x3
I found myself falling forward on a few of these, but had a fairly easy time overall. Roughly one and three minutes for the breaks.
Squat -
110x5
135x5
165x5
195x3
225x1
245x5x3
I was getting pretty tired by this time, so I found these somewhat harder. Once I'm back to a regular schedule it should be a little easier, at least.
Pull-Ups -
5x2, 2x9, 3
I'm going to hold myself to the strict doubles and triples rule in future.
No cardio; this workout was already two hours long, and I went to get drinks with Paul and Thatcher afterwards. I'll get in earlier tomorrow; I've got to do my rehab circuit and then hit the elliptical for an hour. Timing should be interesting...
