controlled down, paused, explode up - 85kg x5 @ RPE 9
regular reps - 100kg x 5.5 @ RPE 10
Had planned to triple the 85kg front squat, but my mid back said no... started to ache
5th rep on 100kg squats felt OK, thought I had a 6th, but all strength died at the sticking point and I failed it...
May have been able to do it if fresh, so 1RM is around 115kg, 253lbs
Hmm 1RM front squat is probably 95kg
Starting to feel like the linear gains are running out now, at least while on a calorie deficit, time to change things up
Goal is to get 1RM to 315lbs by the time I hit 80kg bodyweight, which should give me enough strength to get fingers over the rim off steps, and touch the 9'10" off vertical.

Hot day, had not that much energy.
So I cut stuff out and volume a bit, so a bit of deload
I should have done my pushups and inverted rows at the court like normal, but when I tried to do them after my squats, I just had no desire, energy to do em...
