i still think you should enter a PL comp. don't even try to really max, just do it one day instead of regular training. would be really interesting to see how much you can DL with no practice but a big squat and lots of back work.

if he does one, he should just do one event (squat, obviously, lol).

I really love "raw PL" (absolutely nothing, no belt, no wraps etc).

LBSS, check the 198 lb weight class squat record in California:

https://rawpowerlifting.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/CALIFORNIA-STATE-POWERLIFTING-RECORDS.pdf




Kingfish, how's your sister's marathoning/running going?

sister still running like forrest jump.

480lb at 198... interesting. there was a time not long ago that i did the 2nd 455 for the day and felt like i could have done 475 instead. i'm pretty good in guessing my near max weight for the day.  :headbang:

* i did not physically tire myself at work this week as i'm mostly on the documentation side of work. mostly seating town. i still needed 3 workouts just to get back to the 455. i was off on sat morning. got good sleep on sat day. sat afternoon, sunday am and pm were still "post work" weak.
* its not the muscle. IMO, the mental energy to tense the muscle is the difference here. if i'm well recovered on sleep, i can put more energy in keeping my legs as one solid unit and it always make me feel thicker.

Calves seated calf raise soleus  4x45lb 20x1 sets (10s)

* feeling stronger after good sleep. not as strong as last sunday but i should be good by monday afternoon. the bw pullups few days ago did some damage to my back. gym had new cable station and i wanted to try the climbers grips. felt good at the time.

Mon Sept 17

morning
Squats 315-365-405,
Shoulders smith machine inclined press 185 20x1 (5-10-5) sets | bw dips 20x2 sets (10s)
Rows seated machine lat pulldown 220 20x1 sets (5-10-5) | one arm cable lateral rows 50 20x1 sets, 60 5x2 sets, 75 50x1 sets
Calves seated calf raise soleus  4x45lb 20x1 sets (10s)

* was strong enough for a 435 but it will be a heavy lift.  skipped everything and wait til i'm stronger later.  adding volumes and intensity slowly to my lateral rowing. i did 75lb 10 reps before and it wrecked my rhomboids in a good way but was a very irritating soreness. il build up to it slowly so there is no peak soreness right away.

afternoon
Squats 315-365-405-435 +15
Shoulders smith machine inclined press 185 20x1 (5-10-5) sets | bw dips 20x2 sets (10s)
Rows seated machine lat pulldown 220 20x1 sets (10s) | one arm cable lateral rows 60 5x4 sets, 75 50x1 sets
Calves seated calf raise soleus  4x45lb 20x2 sets (10s)

* was stronger but was not as explosive on the 405 as i wanted. 435 went up without a big fight but it was a good call. a 455 would have added too much fatigue. will get it tmrw afternoon.

Tue Sept 18

Calves seated calf raise soleus  4x45lb 20x2 sets (10s)

* looking good this morning already. still deciding if i want to beef up my shoulders by going heavier on the seated press or going weighted dips. favoring weighted dips. if i get strained from that, its on the elbows and those don't affect the squats.
 
afternoon
Squats 315-365-405-435 +15

Calves seated calf raise soleus  4x45lb 20x2 sets (10s)

* not very happy with the explosiveness of the 405. it felt the same this morning. i took more rests on the shoulder pressing. should be good to go tmrw otherwise, consistent 435s is not a bad thing too.

* bw still sub 200lb but the back off sets in squats for the past few weeks added good thickness. did 405x5 all paused. 5th rep was not maxd and still did an honest pause on that. i'm 455 thick now but will use 435s first to make sure.
* still afraid of going heavier on the lateral rowing. last time i went heavy using 70-75lb, my mid back was so sore it bothered my squat. it hit the muscles of the rhomboids very well but when those get very sore, its very annoying. i always felt like doing deep tissue on my midback using the smith bar.   

Mon Sept 10

* planned bare minimum on the squats this morning but was a lot stronger already than the usual morning. took it easy and tested the 435 as planned and it was not heavy. 455 could have been good this morning but i'm a lot stronger in the afternoons from more sleep. will do it later.
