Ouch.
Was very tight and stiff for this one. I dislike training in the lower rep ranges, because it's very painful to keep my form as it feels like my quads are about to rip in half, and come off the knee. I had some problems with my adductors tonite, just feeling stretched and achey, my mistake was I did the abductor machine, but did not warm those up. I've been tending to do a lot of my warm up with a mini training session, that way I can get to heavier weights faster, and not feel so horrible. Today I took a 315 front squat, and nothing went loose, so that's a good and bad sign in my mind, I'm going to have to adjust to a higher volume, and just do my best with the back squat reps after my front squat.
Front squat
225, 275,315
Back squat
225,275,315
-stopped there, just didn't feel good tonite, so I'll regroup and go after sets of 5 on friday.
Bench
245 5x7
-these are feeling better all the time, too tight to arch very well, but tucking my elbows well and feeling that groove.
Sitting in the 228-235 range right now, feeling very filled out, not feeling too much water weight or fat. Very happy with the combo of high levels of BCAAs and high volume training. I was 215 at my last meet, and I was eating very casually... sitting at 230 most days feeling pretty much normal is a goo thing... Just going to see how the next few weeks play out, and just keep my head.
