PM workout

Squat 6x330, 10x275
BTN press 6x135, 2x10x105
Pull-ups 1x20
Reverse hyper 2x10

Not a ton in terms of amount of work, but all these sets were very high effort. Definitely some good work tonight. My best all time sets of squats around this weight is 335x10, so this isn’t an all time PR by any means, but this is a post marriage/having kids PR, which is still kind of a PR haha. Happy with that, and it’s a 15 lbs improvement over a hard set of six I did a couple weeks ago

Deadlift 3x345,365,385, 5x400
Tricep press 3x8x85, 15x45
Barbell curls 3x8x80, 13x45
Reverse hyper 2x10

I know it’s nothing crazy, but I’m someone who’s always been a bad deadlifter. Always my worst lift. Repping 400 is a good feeling. Tried uploading the video but it’s too big & I’m not tech savvy lol. Rest of the workout was good as well

Paused squat 3x315, 2x3x285
BTN press 4x4x125
Weighted chin-ups 1x10x45

Not an amazing session today, but still got decent work in. Was just short on time & splitting focus between training and watching kiddos. Sternum still isn’t in a good spot, no real updates there. Definitely looking forward to getting that back to normal, but gonna make the most of what I can now

~.9 mile run
~3 mile airdyne

Run took 7:20, biked until 15:00. Run felt better than I expected. Just used a stop watch so not exactly sure of pace or distance, but I wasn’t dying after 3 minutes so that’s a good sign.

Light workout. Might do a pseudo deload week for lower body lifts, or at least a couple light workouts. Would be good
