Realized I used the heavier 25lbs plates for close grip bench yesterday which might explain the mishap

Deadlift 360 x1, 0, 0 5’ yikes. I think I might drop power cleans for speed deadlifts or stiff legs because I’m guessing there’s not enough volume to make progress.

Some solid training acorn…indefinitely think your bigger than a acorn at the moment with these lifts.

Thanks coachm! Consistency is my biggest issue but I like this current set up I’ve got going. It’s working well for bench and press so now I just gotta figure out squat, deadlift, and back training.
