* the neutral bar for chins i use at the company gym during workdays do not have the open space in between the parallel bars where you can put your head in between. it makes the chins a bit harder because you have to pull yourself up and out then into the bars to get to full rom. makes the reps a little harder. easier to get the last few reps to 20 when all you have to do is pull up and not worry about hitting your head against the bar.

* felt very strong after some good mashed potato spiked with wasabi on my last dinner. tried to do a 12+ 315s in waves of 4s. the 13th rep went downhill fast. dont want to overexert on a work night. 12 felt comfortable. can still do another x12 tmrw.

What happened from 15 to 20? No workout days don't happen in this journal, KF lifting every single day is a fundamental rule of the universe.  :P

still did the workouts. just messed up the quote/paste. will find the old entry somewhere.

thanks

BW 188-192lb. leanest ive been in the last few weeks. squat is holding steady and feels routine. could go to 440lb (as i did not so long ago) if i carb up leading to it. playing more pickup bball. can double hand SVJ 36-37" after a game. best jumps i got was at ~178-182lb BW years back. i might be able to 38+" SVJ standing 2-hand dunks not far from now.

* forgot to note: i did a 2-hand SVJ dunk. first one in a while. did it within 2 weeks of getting back to jumping. just got enough clearance above the rim but not as good as when i was really throwing the ball down and ball hitting the floor before i land. thats how i measure i good flush.

does that not also load up your lower back?

yes it does. the only way i can upperbody push without involving the lowerback is with the dips. will them but not for a while. il just go light on the OHP.

2.4x bw paused atg squat....
 
whats your ratio now?

405 / 192bw = 2.1

not doing anything very heavy but 2.3 using 440lb is doable also.

im not seriously leaning out so not really a good time to check squat ratios.

Do you go with all out intensity every day? Or do you just squat what you can without putting so much of a grunt?

i use 405 without much effort at all. it feels heavier on days when i dont get as much sleep during work nights but not heavy enough to make me second guess if i can push the weight back up after the pause.

i was pause repping the 405 at 170lb bodyweight years ago. i mentally overcame this weight already.  :headbang:

why dropping max weight, if you're feeling strong?

because i like lifting everyday. i cannot maintain the intensity of 405+ at 190lb bw without tiring out if i continue doing 405lb on light days. it was fine when i was 210 heavy.

* tricep started to feel used during the chins now. all started when i did multiple 10s of db shoulder press. not a bad thing. just weird that triceps get some soreness just now from the high rep chins.
* very strong on the squats lately.  could be 440 paused with the 405 bar speed this morning. planning on doing 365 max weight as dailys and peak for 405+

* i am not mentally ready to deload and peak 455 paused rep at this low 190s weight at this time.
