You were beat up on the big squat day a little extra was probably a good thing.
Those bands look really interesting. Just the thought of holding 455 makes me tired let alone doing band work with it.
Good stuff.

Well to be completely honest, I typed it all in right after lifting so my arms were shaking, I was very sweatty, and I thought I was going to start cramping any second.
I like the high volume but I’m getting tired or racing from one exercise to the other. I’m thinking of ditching the HS stuff on this day and just doing more DB work.
Looks like you’ve made some good progress since the beginning of this thread. I loathe commercial gyms and the small investment in my home gym has been wonderful. Do you do any ab work to finish off squat day? I find ab work after squat work offsets the stress I’ve put on my back and tightens my core. I should say core work such as hanging leg raises, standing crunches, planks, etc. I usually do between 25 and 30 reps of core work to finish every lifting day.

I was really tired from fighting this weekend and I thought I wouldn’t have a lot for this session but strangely I felt like I got stronger the more I lifted. Now I’m pretty wiped so I’ll hopefully hit the rack tonight a little early.

By hitting 395 I’m back within 35lbs of where I was at before I got hurt. it s was a really, really ugly lift so I’m going to shoot for 395 as a single for the next couple of weeks to get that down a bit better before adding more weight.

That seems like Smart training, Joe. I need to do more smart training!
