Day 2 week 2
BENCH PRESS
45x5, 135/185/225x2, 275/275/275/285/285/285/295/295/295x3
TRX FAT MAN PULL UPS
3 sets of 10
This was great! I think this will be my new light bench routine every week. I might have to go lighter when I've had a heavier bench session that week, but I like the technique work and I can always work on speed with lighter weight.

SQUAT
Day 1 week 2
SQUAT
45x5, 135/225x2, 315/365/405/455x1, (added knee wraps) 515x1
*515 felt like hell.
It's been a LONG week. It has actually felt like 2 or 3 weeks. My wife was induced Sunday night and our son was born Monday morning at 7:15. He's happy and healthy and quite a handful. My wife sleeps 10pm-4am and I sleep 4am-10am or so. I'm working at home right now, which is a very helpful advantage for us. I managed to get in to the gym tonight but the lack of sleep and food this week really took it out of me. I'm hoping once we get in a rhythm I will be able to be better recovered and maybe get some quality work in at the gym.
I've canceled my plans for the July 2 meet. I will still test at least my squat and bench press because I have some numbers I've been wanting to hit. I'm not exactly "competitive" at this point in my career anyway, so putting off one meet is not such a bad thing while my numbers are less than stellar. The plan is still to take openers on the squat and bench press next week and do some extra work then take a deload the next week and test on the weekend. Our crew is having some scheduling issues, so we're hopefully gonna get that worked out soon.
