Week 21 Day 1

Test week.

Squat sucked. Bench ok. Bodyweight was 220.4 lbs this morning. Still keeping the weight off but it's affected my strength.

Squat
430x1 @ RPE 9.5 - Heavy and slow.
450x0 - legs were like Jell-O as soon as I started to descend. Should've done 440. 440 was max at the start of the cycle.

Competition Pause Bench Press
325x1 @ RPE 9
340x0 - buried
335x1 @ RPE 10
Bench went up 5lbs.

Week 21 Day 2

Deadlift
485x1
500x1 @ RPE 9
520x0 - bolted to the floor.
510x0 - bolted to the floor.
Weak.
1RM has no gain. So far I'm not a fan of Nuckol's Average To Savage 2.0.

Probably should've just went for 510-520 after 485.

Press Wednesday.
