Week 3 of 12 Day 7
Daily Squats Maintenance - clustered paused reps - warmup and backup
[225 +2+2+2][275 +2+2][315+2][365,385+1][405 +1+1]
- 315x20 [2x10]

* time to back off a bit now for the next 1-2 workouts. 405 top heavy singles - form was solid and legs are now tired. did high volume/light weight back off 315s for more blood flow. post workout meal/sleep will be strong.

[225 +2+2+2][275 +2+2][325+2][375,380+1][405 +1+1]
- 385x5 [1x5]

* 2 days of unplanned deload due to sore lowerback did pretty good for recovery too. the 405 felt light considering this is the first workout of the day. i'm stronger on the 2nd workout ~ 8-10hrs after the 1st.

* lowerback is now pain free. decided to lift again just to make sure it holds up.

Week 3 of 12 Day 5
Daily Squats Maintenance - clustered paused reps - warmup and backup
[225 +2+2+2][275,325 +2+2][375,400+1+1]
- 380x2 [+1+1]
- 325x8 [+2+2+2+2]

* still some stiffness in the lowerback but fukit, been 2 days already and 375s are not cutting it anymore. 2 singles of 400 - the lifts felt good. drained me a bit and was only able to get 2 on 380. was planning at least 5 but as the concentric slowed down, my back really needed to stay solid to hold that weight longer. didn't bother beating myself up some more.
* 325s were no problem.
* after my back recovers 100%, i might bump it up at week 4-5 to 410 top singles with 380-390 backups. i don't like that 45-50lb gap with my repeatable daily max and my peaked 1RM (445-450).

Daily Squats Maintenance - clustered paused reps - warmup and backup
[225 +2+2+2+2][275,325 +2+2][375+1+1]
- 325x10 [+2+2+2+2+2]

* back still not 100% took it easy again. improving on the stiffness somewhere in the right lowerback but not enough confidence to use heavier weights.
* did more warmup doubles to really get good form going for the heavier weights. it worked without tiring me.

* recovering from lowerback soreness. felt alright but do not want to go 400 with something not feeling very solid in there. all paused reps felt good after getting warmed up.

- 380x2 [1x2]

* back still a bit beat. forgot to mention that i used a different shoe the other workout and that might have caused my back to get uncomfortable. the higher heels of the newer adidas didn't work well for me.
* i need to back off the intensity now and give my back some time to catch up. its stiff right now post-workout. not a good sign. i did my lift after my 7pm-8am work. IMO, its better this way because id get plenty of sleep afterwards. having been awake and moving also helped in my warmups. everything felt good except for the back which gave up too soon. could have had 425-430 the way the 325/375 felt very light.

[225 +2+2+2+2][275 +2+2][325 +1+1+1+1][375 +1+1][390,400 +1]
- 380x1

* overslept and missed the 6-7ish morning workout. body probably needed the extended rest from yesterdays multiple heavy singles - 390x10, 380x5. must have been too much to soon.
* coordination got better after multiple clustered wamrup doubles/singles, but upperback did not feel solid on the 375s. 2nd single of 375 felt more explosive but the upperback felt the same way. 390/400 got up without any problems for the legs but my upperback is just shot now. thought about 380x5 singles as backup light set but the first rep is already ugly. stopped there.

Week 2 of 12 Day 7
Daily Squats Maintenance - clustered paused reps - warmup and backup
- 390x10 [1x10]

* i got good sleep.  singled 390s like how i did 375s a couple of days back. at this pace, it might be possible to get to 410 singles within the 8-12weeks i give myself to do this clustered cycles. same thing today, the first few reps up to 4 were heavy until i got my blood really moving and repped the rest easily. i really want to try a burnout set just to see how far i can go but it might set me back too much.
* might lift again in the afternoon if the soreness fades a bit. did the 390s with 45-90sec pauses.
* got my yearly blood work results.. everything normal except for my creatinine levels. damn thing is abnormally high.

* now legs and back are sore. time to backoff a bit with 1x a day lift unless i find a way to sleep more to get better recovery.

- 390x6 [1x6]

* 45-90sec rest between the 390x1 clusters. stopped at rep 6 when i felt the lowerback starting to fatigue. legs felt strong but my upperback is getting really beat now with the higher volume racking/unracking.
* i still might lift later in the afternoon but keep the backup cluster to 390x4 to complete a x10 for the day. will cut volume now to x10, either a single 390x10 or 390x5 x2 and lift 1x only.

- 380x10 [1x10]

* this is by far the weakest ive felt this week (judging by how i lifted the 400), but the heavy 400x1s still got up without really decaying too much to a crawl. IMO, the warmup really has something to do with it - i benefit more from quick rests and low reps. 225-275-325 gets sub 2 mins between sets, and the 325+ ~ 4-5mins. the heavy single clusters of 375-400 is ~ 45-60secs
* singles 1-4 of 380 were heavy. when i got my breathing going and really gulping down air on the mid-high singles, it got a lot easier. rep 10 felt like 20-25lbs lighter than rep 1. i could have gone to 14-16 or even 20 after i got my blood boiling nicely.
* i need to really learn how i can maximize the warmup effect without it fatiguing me too much. might lift again later if i feel like it.

- 380x10 [1x10]

* felt a lot stronger than the morning workout. got the 380 singles x10 convincingly. might try 390s x4-6singles tmrw if i wake up strong again.
* BW at 170-172lbs. SVJ 2-hand dunking cut down to 1-2 day/week. did one session today post workout but only did 6max jumps. ligaments in the knees are still holding strong without the tenderness i usually get from high intensity squat volumes. paused squats really helps in minimizing joint wear and tear.

* yes. got my planned lifts on a weak day. the 400 felt very heavy on the first rep but got 10lb lighter on the 2nd rep after 40sec.

* little bit tired from accumulated 375x20s daily. was able to lift 1x yesterday due to work schedule. noticed that even with long sleep and big time gap from the previous workout, my coordination was still there using this higher volume lifts. it can also be from the quick warmup clustered reps - whatever it is, its working. got 400x1 twice again.

- 375x10 [1x10]

* the first 1-3 singles felt heavy and then it gradually got easier the more reps i did. at rep 10, felt like i could have gone all the way to 20. IMO - 5 mins from the clustered 400 +1+1 might not be enough rest.
* il keep top set to 400 +1+1. most of the time i mess up and go heavier when i feel the extra power in my legs. might as well just rest a couple of secs and rep it again... 400x1 x4 per day and see how much i can maintain the pace before i back off again.
* will do the same pattern of lift again this afternoon. workout night starts tonight so il most likely do single workouts until the weekend.
