Squats from today
So far it’s been 8 weeks since my last powerlifting meet, right now I’m feeling pretty good sitting at 200 pounds, getting good recovery between the shifts at the store and the training required for the sport
Honestly I thought 385 was a nice top single not too bad, tried something different and used lighter sleeves for my sets up to 80% then went with my inzers for my heavier sets,
I completed 5 doubles, in our sport that means 5 sets of 2 repetitions, the most important thing with these sets and the way they are programmed is paying attention to details and looking at your body’s overall positioning and lifting mechanics. I jumped to 385 for a top single, sometimes u have to adjust, I didn’t have much time after this set because I had to go home and get ready for work, so I put in some secondary movements for next week to continue building towards a meet preparation for later this year. Squats for me are a more taxing lift then bench, deadlifts and bench I can run through, squats I take my time. As a lifter in training you control the pace and overall listening to your body.
I programmed 385 for a single and I did my job. Overall good squat session, definitely sleep in a little tomorrow for deadlifts. I’m conditioned for closing shifts so my normal bed time is between 1 and 3 am. Nothing to glorify just is what it is. As long as you get it done ✅. Alright guys thanks for supporting
