I thought I’d pop in before this thread lands on page 2.
Got a 5lb and 15lb PR on a hip width stance high bar low box squat for 330 and 340lbs. The 330 was nearly perfect except for a little tail tuck. For the 15lb’er, I lost momentum from my legs, then my back started caving and leaning forward but I managed to grind it out.
hit 265 for a double on the dead bench today. that’s a ten pound 2 rep pr so I’m pretty pumped. No video of the 265 but I have one of 255 for a double.

Been getting back into some heavy overhead work. This morning I hit an easy strict press of 215 and lost a 4 minute battle with 225. I’ll have it next time. This is only 5 or 10 pounds of my all time PR, only now I’m sitting at about 190 instead of 230+.
Not unrelated, I did set an all time PR on delt veins.

Squatted 225 lbs for a single, 15 pounds more than I’ve ever squatted, 35 pounds more than I could squat a week ago. I guess I just needed rest, I took the last week off from squats and deads because I strained my spinal erectors.
Hit 295 ATG back squat–10 lbs. higher than a week ago.
Hit a 250 ATG front squat
Beat my previous DL PB easily (165 kg) after not doing much heavy pulling for a couple months and using a hook grip instead of mixed grip.
Hit a 195 lb. paused close-grip bench. I had to take a year off of benching due to a shoulder problem and I just started again two weeks ago. I’ve already blown away all my PB’s from over a year ago!
Should be totaling more than 900 in my meet in under two weeks.
Chain bench 420lbs + 70lbs chains (didnt write down old max…but i dont remember being in the 400’s)
Chain bench /w Titan ram 440lbs +90lbs chains (up 35lbs)
