    I think it's noteworthy that the plan was to do 3.

    Edit: Nevermind, you mentioned it in a previous post.

    Friday March 27th

    Decided to pull a day early due to the big meet I have to coach Helene, Gene, Andy and Josh to this weekend. Not fully recovered yet but give it a shot

    DL
    Worked up to 600 then
    600 x 7 or more like 5,1,1
    Hit 5 easy then two others after a bit of rest

    OH press lock outs from top of head
    Bar, 95, 135, 185 x 5
    205 x 5 x 2
    215 x 5
    225 x 5

    Chins 2 x 6 sets
    Chins paused at dead hang = 11
    Man that was harder pausing them for a 1 count at hang dropped my chins by 6


    PS.


    A huge congrats to the four athletes (Helene, Andy, Josh and Geno) I coached this weekend to a meet. They all hit PR's and between them hit 7 national records and 6 state records

    True and instead I struck while the iron was HOT I went for it Only due to the fact I knew 100% I would hit the lift.

    Thanks. I am a very proud coach right now. I also just found out it was 10 national records instead of 7

    April 3rd
    DL day
    Tired coming in then strained a Lat on the clean grip snatch It knotted up big time starting to feel normal just now Monday morning It hurt like a mother yesterday morning.

    Clean grip snatch
    Bar x 2 sets
    115 x 2 x 3 sets
    135 x 2
    145 x 0,1, 1,
    155 x 0, 0, 0
    I didn’t actually miss any just they didn’t fly in the clean grip to lock out I had to press them.

    Sumo Deadlift
    (its been a LONG LONG time since I went heavy on these so figured what the hell I kind of need a deload anyway) My lat hurt doing these so just went where I could
    245 x 1m x 2
    295 x 1
    335 x 1
    385 x 1
    425 x 1
    515 x 1
    565 x 1 wasn’t bad just hurt to pull it. Dont let anyone tell you the lat isn’t involved in a DL

    Rack Pull above knee
    515 x 3
    605 x 3 x 3 sets
    665 x 3. That’s was painful so called it there My PR is actually 905 at this height so load was not a prob.

    High pulls, 1 set at 275 that’s it called it and went to throw

    Light and heavy weight hammer x a lot of throws. Just trying to get my form down.

    Weight over bar x about 10 throws.

    starting strength coach development program
    Wednesday april 7th

    Squat day, Things were feeling heavy Im achey. Time to back off. I figured it out when I got to my work sets and what was easy last week felt like 800lbs this week so I played it smart went low volume and walked away.

    Squat, fairly wide to high box (The high box is set to where I have no hip pain from the bones grinding)

    Warm ups all x 5 reps =95, 135, 185, 225, 275, 315, 365, and 405
    Then

    430 x 2,2
    these felt like a ton

    So just take a couple heavier singles
    515 x 1
    545 x 1

    Not bad for how I felt and not having anything over 420lbs on me for several months

    Heavy weight swings
    3 sets of 10

    That’s it

    Going to rest up might DL a bit Saturday but take the weekend to ride dirt bikes, road bikes, and just do other active stuff non training related.
