Daily Squats Maintenance - Paused Reps
[200,250x4][300x2][350,400x1]

* no sleep between this and the previous workout. did not want to burn my CNS out by lifting the 425. also did the workout in my lunch break so i made it quick. 3-5min rests. 400 was still easy but i can tell that a 2-3hr pre-workout sleep would have made things better.

Daily Squats Maintenance - Paused Reps
[200,250x4][300x2][350,400,425x1]

* got 6hr day sleep but did not have enough freshness to lift 425 easily. did a very strict pause at the hole but the concentric was not as explosive as i wanted.
* upping BCAA consumption by consuming more casein proteins now. single serving in the 3-4grams of BCAA and go for 8-10 servings a day.

Daily Squats Maintenance - Paused Reps
[200,250x4][300x2][350,400,425x1]

* forgot to mention, i signed up for a 24hr fitness gym so i can lift whenever i feel like it, and right now its every 8-10hours on non-work days. lol
* the 425x1 paused may appear to be a plateau but the way im really killing the momentum and blasting from the paused start without any jerking or rocking is a big improvement. i did the same with the 440x1 a few days ago but that strict paused rep is not repeatable at this time. the 425x1 is perfect for high frequency singles without getting my VMOs tender.
* did my SVJ 2 hand dunks at the 24hr fitness facility and was approached many time asking how its done. so many people want to dunk. i've already forgotten how cool it was to dunk. did my jump drills cold and without a pick up game. dry BW at 168-170lb
* hill sprinting also consistent. back extensions up to repeatable 135 x16-18 multiple time a day, and its not wrecking my squats.

Daily Squats Maintenance - Paused Reps
[200,250x4][300,350x2][400,425x1]

* 4 days now of 13hr nightshift work (did extra day on tue), and the sleep cycle is tiring me a bit. 425x1 not as strict as i wanted it to be. still paused at the hole but the concentric did not start from a complete stop. had to recoil a bit - not too much to tire the ligaments. just enough to get me my 425x1 on a weak day.
* the 400x1 felt as easy as any other strong day. it just got exponentially harder at +25lbs more.

* got good sleep but 1-2hr more would have been perfect. 425x1 felt routine now.

^ they might not have this in romania

Daily Squats Maintenance - Paused Reps
[200,250x4][300,350x2][400x1]
- 375x2

* weak. too much sleep and also tired from 3x lifts yesterday. 400x1 was still controlled/explosive but definitely felt heavier than usual. adding back up sets of 375s - thats were i left off last month. try building that back up to 375 x6-8 reps.
