We went into the gym Sunday morning which is squat day and
found the monolift broken… I was just a
little bit upset about this considering whoever broke it hid the fact that it
was broken and also didn’t tell anyone…
I pulled the piece off and on e of the guys, Chris, had a buzz box at
home and he got it welded back together and we put everything back together
last night… So, instead of Monday night
benching we were squatting. I am four
weeks out from the meet I’m doing on February 28th and this is when I
go the heaviest and really test where I am.
It went like this:
Bar
x 10
155
x 5
265
x 3
355
x 2
Briefs
465
x 1
Added
Suit
555
x 1
665
x 1
715
x 1
775
x 1 Planned Opener
830
x 1 Planned Second Attempt and also a 10 lbs. Meet PR
After
the 830 I had planned on doing 1000 with reverse average bands. I have been using reverse light bands this
training cycle and have done a pretty good 920 with them. I really wanted to feel the grand on my back
and I think that would have indicated I would have been able to handle an
875-900 lbs. third attempt. But, I wasn’t
happy with the 830 at all. It was OK but
I think it was high and my setup was off.
My left foot was a little behind the bar and I was a little shaky. I decided to go for 955 reverse average bands
and was going to really focus on burying it and calling it. I unracked the weight and it didn’t feel bad
at first but then I started the toes to heels back and forth crap. Usually if I just tighten up and start back it’ll
stop, this time it didn’t and the shakiness was there. I only went down for a second and just stood
back up and racked it. There’s no excuse
I just wasn’t all the way on last night but I’m thinking maybe the time made a difference??? I usually squat in the mornings and it was
about 9 PM when I tried the 955… who knows.
