Today, I was scheduled to squat 645lbs for as many triples as possible(sans grind reps).
Front Squats: 135lbs x 5, 225lbs x 3, 315lbs x 2
Back Squats(no belt): 405lbs x 2, 455lbs x 2, 495lbs x 1, 545lbs x 1
(add belt)
585lbs x 1, 615lbs x 1,
645lbs x 3 (video, first two easy, last rep slow and on toes and muscled up)
645lbs x 3 ( grind hard on 3 rd rep, calling it a day)
I was hoping to do at least 3 sets of 3 reps with 645lbs but whatever. 3 reps x 2 sets is good enough and still a PR. I have to stick to my no grind rules. I am supposed to deadlift 695 for multiple singles on Thursday and then squat 675lbs for multiple singles on Saturday.....so no grinding.
My training is coming closer and closer to that point of diminishing marginal returns as i draw nearer and nearer to my 100% 1RM...if i can do multiple singles on both Thursday and Saturday with this weeks prescribed loads....I will be lifting 99% my PR training 1 RMs....nice.
