I have been using actual weights again, and it feels good.

Based on three rep max calculators (I know unreliable) I'm looking at 245 bench, 350 deadlift, and 260 squat, which isn't bad for my current flabby, out of shape 35 year old body. I'm hoping for 1k club by end of next year.

Today:
Bench: 250 x 1, 210 x 3 x 5, 210 x 4
Chin-ups: 1 x 3, 2 x 2
Squat: 225 x 2 x 5

No real soreness in the left bicep after benching but it definitely doesn't feel the same as the right arm ... hard to explain. But no pain so that's good.

I invested in 8 1/2-pound plates a couple years ago so hopefully the press PRs can keep going up one pound at a time for a little while longer.

Today

Squat: 155 x 8 x 2, 195 x 6 x 2, 225 x 6 x 2, 255 x 4 x 2

In between sets: 60# bench step-ups, 4 x 10 each leg

Abs

Felt a weird pinch/pop in the middle of my 1st 225 set, immediately racked and walked around rubbing it real good. Pain went away and was fine to finish out the whole workout, but now I think because it's in my head I swear I feel a dull pain. Hopefully didn't screw anything up before hockey starts back up!

What part of you had the pinch/pop?

Squats on last lower day, I felt some left knee popping and discomfort at 225, walked it off and didn’t feel it at 275 or 315. Felt again when I got to 225 on my drop set. The body is a weird machine.

It was right in front, just a weird twinge that told me immediately don’t drop for a rep. Haven’t lost any strength, stretching out now watching The Terror and I’m convinced it’s in my head now

I've never tried the hack squat. I used to go to a gym that had that machine. I don't particularly like any of the lifts but a heavy low-back squat is the one I usually dread the most.
