Sore and exhausted but gone in and got it done.
Joe buddy your supposed to rest and recover after a meet hell you have been lifting max effort for 2 months now take a week off and then rest set all of your weights 20% below where you were at and start over… you will thank yourself 2 months from now when you blast past where you are at… your body has to recover sometime
Joe sorry to be so late, I cant access the site at work…AWESOME Meet Buddy!!! great stuff…very happy for you!

Genreally I only reset the 5/3/1 when I can’t make the minimum. I did reset my bench this time though because my reps were so low that I thought it would be a good idea.
Great job, Joe! And you got to meet so many people! What a meet!
Joe, seeing you do so well at your meet really made me happy. Congratulations!
Back in the gym already?
PUT SOME WEIGHT ON THE BAR!
You definitely perform well when under pressure. Congratulations.
And remind me again why you wear knee sleeves for DL?

I have terrible knees for football injuries and then I reinjured them back when I was in the Marines. So they keep everything warm.
I have torn both ACL’s, both MCL’s and the Menicus in the left knee.
Great job at the meet Joe. I know you must’ve been pumped to get that 330 squat. Looked like you changed up your squat technique/form from the way you normally lift -was that intentional?
And I have to say I agree with what damutt said. I’d probably go with say down 10%, but the # is not the important thing, it’s that you need to go with a lot more rep-type weights for a while to recover and to build up your strength base. My .02.
marine that explains alot
Sorry I’m late, great job at the meet Joe.

I widen my stance when I lift out of a monlift. Theres something about that thing that seems to make my form better though I don’t know what it is.

It explains a lot of my hardheadness.

Gased but overall okay with results so soon after the meet.
Great meet performance Joe, although I do feel a bit ‘suckered’.
All this “my squat totally sucks, I couldn’t even squat 220 today and that was way high blah, blah” sort of stuff before each meet and then you go out and nail an awesome, deep 330!!
I’m beginning to think you’re a bit of a fibber.
Sorry, but at first glance I keep thinking your new avi is lil power. The stance, colours, monolift etc…see what I mean?
When I look closer of course I can differentiate by the breasts…yours are slightly perkier!
Sory, Joe, I am VERY late to the party. That was an awesome series of vids form the meet. I’m really impressed. Congratulations!

So totally not sure if I should be offended or not… 
So I’m wondering if my low back could hold up to a smolov cycle.
