BW: 158.2lbs Ankle still messed up, but it is getting better by the day. Maybe I should have rested it, but I am scared of not at least maintaining my squat so I went to go work out anyway. Ankle hurts when I squat down, so I had to switch it up to a much wider stance with toes pointing way out. Looked retarded. Squat: Bar x 8 135 x 5 185 x 4 225 x 1 <-- This is when I realized, I am not used to this particular stance so I am very weak in this position. Barely squeezed out this 1 rep lol, so I brought the weight down. 185 x 5 185 x 5 Hyper's: 45lbs - 5x12 Leg Raises: 25lbs - 5x8 Paranoid that my weak squat workout will not help me maintain my squat til next Monday when I'm sure I'll be good to go by, I did some extra lower body isolation exercises. Leg Curls: 100lbs - 3x8 Leg Extensions: 250lbs - 3x8 The glute exercises (IDK name): 100lbs - 3x10 Also did some heavy calf raises negatives on my injured ankle. Felt really good.

BW: 158.6lbs (ate heavy stuff with lots of water right before) Squat: Bar x 10 95 x 8 135 x 5 185 x 3 225 x 1 <-- 10 times, resting 30-60seconds between "sets" 135 x 20 <-- MEBM I felt like since I'm only squatting once a week, I need more volume, and this routine can give me hypertrophy/volume + high intensity CNS stuff. I have been in a total rut and regress in terms of squatting in the past 4 weeks, I thought a new routine was in order since it worked last time. Leg Raises: 25lbs - 8 8 8 8 6 Some ankle rehab work. Over the weekend, I weighed my self after my morning piss and I was 153.0lbs! You can clearly see fat loss all over my body as well. Diet is slow and steady, but at least it's working this time.

At least I don't feel too tired, but the 20 reps of 135lbs is a struggle afterwards lol.

That's exactly what my plan was/is for training (squatting, benching etc) - rest pause + MBEM.

This method is also pretty fun. I'm going to stop my low carb/low caloric diet in 2 weeks. By then, my goal is to be a good 145-150lbs (empty, after morning piss) and from there I'll just recomposition my body and get leaner while staying relatively the same weight. I feel like 145-150lbs at 5'8"/5'9" is good for single leg jumping. Before when I was 157-160, it was probably slightly too heavy. That will become 10 straight weeks of dieting... Probably a little too long of a duration. At least by then, I'll be able to focus on my strength gains more again by eating more. Goal achievement order prediction: Bench, Pull Ups, Squat, Dunk, 8% Body Fat
