Today:
6 minutes: back squat 59 kg

The last 30 seconds was pretty unpleasant, but I’m pretty sure I can make it to eight minutes in a couple of weeks.

1x5: deadlift 199 kg
2x5: deadlift 201 kg
1x12, 2x11: military press 65 kg
5x3, 3x2: pullup 14 kg

5x1: front squat 129 kg
1x1: front squat 133 kg
3x12: db floor press 42 kg
3x10: straight bar curl 33 kg

8 minutes: back squat 59 kg

Eh. I took 2-3 breaths between some of the reps, so I didn’t really make it to eight minutes properly.

1x5: deadlift 199 kg
1x3: deadlift 209 kg
1x2 1/2: deadlift 229 kg
3x12: db floor press 42 kg
8x3: pullup 14 kg

5x1: front squat 129 kg
1x1: front squat 133 kg
1x1: front squat 135 kg
3x12: military press 65 kg
3x12: pullup

I think I should take a week off soon. Haven’t taken time off since June, not feeling to worn down now but it’s good to just take time off once in a while.

3x10: front squat 99 kg (off sawhorses, 1 breath at the top and 1 at the bottom, so every rep starts from a dead stop)
3x12: db floor press 42 kg
1x12, 2x10: straight bar curl 33 kg

1x5: deadlift 199 kg
1x3: deadlift 209 kg
1x2 1/2: deadlift 229 kg
3x12: military press 65 kg
1x5, 6x2: pullup 16 kg

Think I’ll take that week off now.

As usual, I find an excuse to put off taking time off until later. I have Tuesdays and Thursdays off work for the next two weeks to get some work done in my garden - trim the trees, raspberries etc. and bury all the branches and twigs, mostly. So, I’ll have more time to lift and it’ll be better to take a week off when I’m back at work 5 days a week.

So…

5x1: front squat 131 kg
1x20, 1x12: db floor press 42 kg
3x12: pullup

3x10: front squat 99 kg

1x5: deadlift 199 kg
1x3: deadlift 209 kg
1x1: deadlift 229 kg (didn’t get a good grip with the left hand)
2x3, 6x2: pullup 16 kg
4x3: military press 65 kg
2x3: military press 67 kg
1x3: military press 69 kg
1x3: military press 71 kg

5x1: front squat 131 kg
1x21, 2x20: db floor press 42 kg (was supposed to be 2 sets of 20, but somebody challenged me - the last set definitely involved some partial reps that shouldn’t really count, though)
3x12: straight bar curl 33 kg

Time to admit that I hate high reps. Let’s do more lower-rep sets of squats and presses.

10x3: front squat 99 kg
8x3: military press 69 kg
3x12: pullup

And… talking a girl into singing these lyrics is an incredible accomplishment. Of course lifting weights helped.

So, took that week off, all the little aches I had went away. Getting back to lifting…
