Last hard workout before deload then maxes. Lifts were all easy, but I have a bad habit of pulling with all back from the knees up. I need to really focus on this for maxes to prevent hitching.

training 10/25

This past training week has been really messed up day wise. Today was actually Thursdays normal lift. But due to starting the training week an a Wednesday this is what worked out best. One more day of heavy lifting, then a deload, then MAX OUTS!

Close Grip 2 board bench
sets at 350 (heaviest bench weights post shoulder operations. Paltry numbers, but very happy about the stability of my shoulder girdle. I will be benching in the 400's again soon.)

Didn't do the rest of the normal accesory work due to a knee problem I am having. Probably just tore up some old scar tissue, but having some stability issues right now with it. No problem, will get over it soon.

Technically the heaviest double I've ever done. But not a max effort by any stretch. I am interested to watch the videos of max outs, this training cycle I've been squatting close stance, vs. wide stance box squatting which was basically al I'd been doing the rest of the year. I think it was February when I did the 552 to the box and it was ok....but I know I can do that for 5 now, at least with this stance. Maybe I'm a quad squatter?

Push Press with mini-bands
missed 260 again this week, did the sets at 225 against the bands to make sure they got done. Not sure what is going on with the banded. I've nailed 255 against the bands, I could easily jerk the weight, so its frustrating...

Felt bad all workout. Joints hurting and no energy. Lack of eating and sleep is for sure the culprit here. Gotta get back on track in the morning.
