Well, thought my calf was healed enough for squats. Wrong.

Did squats up to 315 when I felt it pull bad.

Bench, 240x5 plus 3 reps of rest/pause board press.

Deadlift up to 455x2. Calf was really killing my power, so I didn't bother trying a third.

Random hypertrophy for chest, tricep and bloodflow restriction bicep. Sledgehammer tabata to finish.

Icing hard this weekend, I guess.

Never posted on here before. Usually don't put numbers out there, but I'm pumped this week. I'm 153lbs and have always had issues with squats, but I finally put up an arse to grass 315 squat. Bench is 235 and dead lift is 395. Obvious next goal is to pull the infamous 4 plates. Awesome numbers in here and keep up the lifting baws!

Of course, the strength part of Crossfit today was Strict Barbell Press at 3x5.

Final set was 185x3, which isn’t bad since I hit the shoulder workout last night at 6.

Squats - 270 5x5
Bench - 230 5x5
Deads - 285 1x5

Got some work to go.

Heavy day.

Heavy squats for the first time since injury. 345x4. Thought I had 5, but I was tired and didn't feel like being risky.

Bench, 240x5.
Dead, 455x2. Wanted 3, but legs were dead, not a shock after 2 weeks of hardly using them.

Backoff work, 3x5 stepups, 3x8 hip thrusts and superset of 60 LB sledgehammer shovels and 200 lb sandbag over shoulder.

Bloodflow restriction arms to finish.

Volume day, first squats since my calf injury.

Going for 5x5 with 285. 4th set, 4th rep, legs shut down. Instead of good morninging the rest to finish, I stopped. Better to actually work the movement, hopefully.

7x8 mix of feet elevated pushups and 3 count paused DB press.
3x2 snatch grip deads off blocks, 405 to 425. 2x3 RDL's, also off blocks.

Some sandbag to shoulder and then bloodflow restriction quads to make up for shutting down on squats.
