[200,250x4][300x2][350,400x1]

* got too much sleep - 7.5hr. felt recovered but was not able to lift heavy. i usually come back a lot stronger 6-7hrs following a workout like this one.

* lowerback tightness almost gone. 1-2 more of these recovery lifts and i'l be back at it again. i really need to lower the frequency of my SVJ dunks. can't do them 2-3x/day with the squats. too much landing forces.

* lowerback is healed. time for some heavier lifting next time. will probably skip lifting later because of work schedule. might do it if i find time. supra 1/2s to 455-475.

somatotropin.. hmm..  i smell that on workdays.. need to snort that thing and train like mendez until i get to superheavyweight beast level too.  :strong:

srs - is that supposed to get mendez ligaments/joints strong enough for his muscles?? whats the main benefit he gets from taking it.. that is assuming he only used 1 type of PED which is most likely not the case.

* lowerback a bit sore from the SVJ landings IMO. stopped at my "i-will-not-get-pinned-by-this-weight-no-matter-what"..400x1. 425 possible but that might prevent me from doing supra max 1/2s + the back up sets later.

* 425x1 easy but still felt some tightness in the lowerback. did not want to break things by doing back intensive supra max 1/2s.

^ the 200-400/425 ramping warmups are paused reps full squats.  supra max 1/2s follows and i will log them if i do some. otherwise (if i'm weak), il just leave it blank. left title there to show what cycle i'm doing right now.. and for the moment, its the 1/2 squats.

* did not get my 5 hr sleep because of unplanned errands. 3hr nap only. i suck. feeling weak but no muscle soreness or anything non-CNS. concentric from the strict pause on the 425 felt 15-25lbs heavier.

[200,250x4][300x2][350,400,425x1]

* got my 3hr pre-workout nap. +15-20lbs over the paused 425x1. stopped there just to make sure i overshoot a bit on recovery before i go at the supra max 1/2s again.
* so explosive today with my post squat SVJ 2 hand dunks. i had to limit myself to just clearing the rim and push the ball down so i don't overexert.. will lift light again in 7-8hrs ~ 4am. something light just to get my breakfast appetite better.

* 3hr nap worked well. will delaod tonight and do more reps of my routine post-squats SVJ 2-hand dunks. might start back up x2-4reps of supra max 1/2 squats to really drill in that explosive strength at a ROM. will also do 1.5reps of the 1/2 squats. down to half depth, up to quarter and then down again to half.. use 425 with that..

* only got 1.5hr nap and it was not enough. 425 from a strict pause was heavier compared to the previous lift. only took the supra max to 475.  will lift again tmrw morning.. hopefully get 4-5hr sleep max

^ 5-6hrs sleep and ~ 2-3 pre workout naps. stongest with this cycle.  can lift 425x1 from a strict pause 3x/day (2.5BW)

anything over 7hrs of sleep right now and i'm fully recovered (sleepwise) but CNS will not be as sharp. i get 7+ when i'm recovering from the sleep deprived work schedule..

* not very strong but still got the 425x1 from a strict pause. the 400x1 was not as explosive but that didn't stop me from using the 425. i got my 5hr sleep (no oversleep), and the previous supra maxes is making the weights feel lighter.

* weak. did not get good enough nap between the lifts. 400x1 from a strict pause but was not very explosive. 425-455 paused supra max were ok. no trouble there.

* started doing the 1/2 squats just a little deeper than 90 just to make sure i'm really working that SVJ ammortization depth. lowerback worked a bit more. 425x1 was from a strict pause. surprisingly strong for a 3rd work night. lift again later before midnight lunch

* 425x1 made from a strict pause even with just a 1hr nap from the previous lift. the concentric was not very strong but it got up there somehow. felt like i only had 5-10lbs over the weight max.
* i felt strong with the warmup ramping singles. i was not expecting to be explosive if i don't get enough sleep in between lifts. half squat effect is good.

^bb.com / costo.  when they go for buy2 get 1 free or whatever promo, and add to that they 10%off minimum discount. right now, they have the dymatize elite casein 4lb for $47.. less 20% = $19/ 2lbs.. not bad. costco has musclemilk discounted up to $10 off sometimes.

^ never timed my 10 and 40yr dash but with all the uphill sprints i've been doing, id say i'm a lot better at accelerating right now. top speed sucks but i'd hold my own in the sub 60meters.

scoops of whey... on a non-high rep routine like i'm doing now, id consume 50-75 grams of protein post workout. so if its 3x lift a day, thats 225g protein from just the powders (whey or casein).

on volume workouts, i can take in 75-100grams intra workout and another 50-75 afterwards. i buy tubs of whey discounted at ~  $16-18/ tub.. have a closet filled with supplements.

* almost 26 hr since the last lift and i'm still a little sore because it was a lot of heavy singles. recovered and felt good but not smooth on the lifts. 425x1 was not as explosive but still a strict pause at the bottom. skipped supra max for later.

- 320x1 front

* 500 surprisingly felt light on the back and i was still able to make the pause at the 1/2 depth ~ 90max quad/calf angle, before exploding up with the weight. the 455x2 following that was still very explosive and controlled. 320 front squat felt so easy it might have been useless.. should have done 345.

^ paused half squats not really doing any harm yet. i like the feeling of pausing at half depth, but going up a bit and going to that same spot with again within the rep before completing the rep is starting to feel good for me. feels like a slowmo version of an SVJ.

* got 6hr straight sleep and felt off. 400x1 was not very easy. continued to 1/2 squat the rest of the weights and will come back stronger later.

- 440,455,475x1

* 425x1 from a strict pause. ~ 10-15lbs over it. strong but not the most explosive.
* lowerback starting to feel a little tired from the supra max halfs. if i struggle later with the paused rep ramping, i might deload back to 455 top set.  goals are 475-500-525 top sets with backoff 455 x2-4s. still in the prep phase so taking it easy for now.

* did not feel weak at all but decided to skip the 475+ so i can be sure that recovery is really catching up. 425x1 paused was boss again - its starting feel like 400 now.

^ thanks. possible but with rims that are 99% not completely 10ft, id say low 42-43 best. the only vid-validated SVJs i have are 39"x2 a few months ago, so i cannot really claim +3-4" over my old vid without any proof.. and yes, my 2-hand reach is 90".

[200,250x4][300x2][350,400,425x1]
- 440,455x1

* still overpowered the paused 425x1 by at least 20-30lbs. solid strict pause with a controlled and smooth concentric. lowerback probably recovered now from the 18rep heavy back extensions. did the supra max preparation sets with the pause.
* did a set of supra max 1/2 squat with a pause at the bottom but came up only to 1/4 way up and went down again after "finding" the depth with the first rep but this time without the pause. like a 1+1/2 set in one rep of 1/2 squat. this felt good but will most likely break something if form gets sloppy - because of the supra max loading.

* just as strong as last time too but lowerback starting to feel tired a bit after the 455. will skip next supra max if i still feel stiff a bit but most likely not.
* SVJ 2-hand dunks afterwards felt easier and more explosive. must be some supra max effect.
