12.20.10 - Back Squats & Clean & Jerks

238.8

Strength:
Back Squats
3 reps at 270
3 reps at 275

The reps didn't feel right, so I stopped right there. Hopefully, I can jump in again on Thursday and get a good workout in.

Once I hit my goal of 300, I want to back off to 270 or so and work my way up again with higher volume sets. Squatting 300, to me, doesn't mean just doing 1 rep. To really feel like I've achieved the goal, I need to be able to do at least 5 reps with correct form and ROM. That will probably happen in the second half of January.

Deadlifts
5 reps at 305
5 reps at 315

Worked up to 315 and then tried to pull 326, but it wasn't happening, so I backed off and did a few more reps at 315 and 305. The numbers above are total reps.

Squat Clean & Jerk
2-2-2-2-2

These were programmed, but I didn't participate. Probably won't jerk or overhead press until next week.

Food:
Apple
Milk
Nuts & dried fruit
Pot roast
mini mac & cheese
4 sliders
1 beer
