XArena's 5/3/1 Log

Around 365-375 on an okay day aha. But my squat is on hold while I get my deadlift up to par haha

cool, I’ve moved back to hitting the squat hard and just hoping it drives up my deadlift along with it. Cause I love to squat… My estimated 1RM is 20 lb below yours and rising fast :smiley:

Looks like your DL is moving up well, but you should maybe try sumo DL some time. It’s probably stronger for your leverages

Aha you’ll never catch me! :wink: jk
I like conventional though, I’ve considered the leverages but whatever mang

Fuck… The left side of my jaw is swollen from my wisdom teeth removal… It hurts…

Okay going to start progressing on CG Inclines, up 5lbs every upper body day. Gotta get my tri’s stronger. Also going to smash my posterior chain with 3x8 goodmornings every lower body day. I’m going to keep increasing the weight, even if I don’t get 3x8, Untill I’m down to 3x5, and then I’ll lower it 20lbs and start all over again. Need to fix my weaknesses.

Push that close grip hard. Literally everything benefits from stronger triceps :slight_smile:
