barbed, nice cardio session
great work all around
BPF i like your mind, most people miss the aspect of 5x5 delving into the cardio zone, let alone adding timed restsā¦let alone 1 min timed rests. All by design as ill be able to increase rest time as weight increases and walls form.
Which btw, this is week 3 and my last sets were quite difficult, but not failure, i assumed around week 4 id approach that and seem to be on target.

Woke up w. Massive knot in my low back yesterday. Stretched n heat treated. Was a bit better today but still not right. Doesnāt seem like a pull nor even a strain, a knot best descrubes it⦠def. Was down on power once i got into it⦠called it a day on squats and just did a full back down⦠which was very disappointing. 250 for 5x5 on ssb would be a p.r n sign of good progress . 240 last week was decent.
Between my sore elbow n now this appears time for a deload⦠which. Btw⦠is common for me at 6-7 weeks⦠which is where im atā¦
