This past week:
Beltless Oly Squat 315x5
Front Squat 245x5
Deadlift 405x5
345 Squat vid coming soon
225x3 Bench lolll
Hit 415x5 deadlift today. Let the 10-pound PR’s keep on coming!
Well ahead of my middle training block before my last meet. I don’t think I went heavier than 505 for a double then, and this wasn’t very hard. I’d give it an RPE of 8. Looking for 600+ in May.
- YouTube 185 kg/~405 lbs. for 2 very unusually ugly reps. I want to pull 200 kg/440 lbs. before or on my 18th birthday in may.
405 for 4 Front Squat
405 for 13 Back Squat
495 for 5 at 210 body weight but. might as well be 500 lol 4 of those plates are heavier than 45lbs. This is after working up to 405 for 4 on Front Squat, 405 for 13 on Back Squats and then 455 for a few just to feel.
My god, Reed! Your squat’s gone up tremendously in a really short time! Awesome job, mate!
425lb+50lb chains PR @ 185lb. With or without chains, it’s a 25lb squat PR! And it was significantly easier than my previous squat PR. An RPE of a 9-10 I’d say. Maybe there was a grinding double, or if not more weight could’ve been added regardless.
And as always, I’m always happy to receive form critiques!
So, it’s a rep PR, but it’s a rep PR that I’ve been wanting for a while:
Bench press: 100 kg x 10 (@ 86 kg this morning)
NFL combine-style… I’m now reaching the numbers of some of the stronger kickers and some of the weaker free safeties.
Also – great squat, Fletch!
Thanks!

315 for 12 on Fronts. The knee wraps are wrapped pretty loose more for compression than anything.
Dude you are a beast! Made it look easy

That was beautiful. Your back didn’t change position from the first rep to the third. Awesome.
New Squat 1RM [and 5RM] (old 405; new 425)
RAW Squat 425x1, 355x5 - YouTube
New Deadlift 1RM (old: 435; new 455 followed by 475 after)
New deadlift max of 585, hoping I can pull 600 at my next meet in March.
425x5 Deadlift. Feels good to be hitting a weight that was a difficult single 8 weeks ago for 5 reps with more left in me.
