Week 6 Day 5

Last day of high volume finally. BB Medicine is beating me up with a bit. I really don't think their templates are good for an advanced lifter not on drugs (at least not for me). Well see how the peak goes. Just my opinion. Low stress week next week then the peak starts.

Beltless 2ct Paused Deadlift
390x4 @ RPE 7
405x4 @ RPE 8
420x4 @ RPE 9
405x4 @ RPE 8
405x4 @ RPE 9

Beltless Press - took @JAMs cue advice to improve my form and reduce layback. It worked. They were much harder but that just means room to improve and get stronger.
185x1 @ RPE 8.5
155x6 @ RPE 8
160x6 @ RPE 9

Leg Press
405x10 @ RPE 7
420x10 @ RPE 8
430x10 @ RPE 9
405x10 @ RPE 9

Week 7 Day 1

Low stress week.
Still not digging this program but I'm gonna finish it.

Squat
420x1 @ RPE 7
440x1 @ RPE 8.5 (E1RM 470)
350x8 @ RPE 8.5/9 (75%)
Squats felt awful today. Felt like I couldn't execute my form properly. Garbage. I also suck at 8s on the squat.

Overhead Press - used my new form/technique to avoid layback. It makes this lift so much harder so my numbers are down until my shoulders get stronger.
185x1 @ RPE 7/7.5
195x1 @ RPE 10 (E1RM 197)
155x8 @ RPE 9.5 (79%) - messed up on the weight used. Was supposed to use 75-77%.

Feet Up Bench Press
230x8 @ RPE 7
240x8 @ RPE 8
250x8 @ RPE 9

325x1 @ RPE 8 (E1RM 351)
270x8 @ RPE 10 (77%)

45x8
135x8
165x8 @ RPE 7
185x8 @ RPE 8
205x8 @ RPE 9
Tired. Bagged it there. Probably never doing these again. Stupid lift.
