Legs felt a bit tired upon waking up, but still stumbled into the gym just after 7am.
At 6pm this same day, my quads feel a bit sore but my lower back has no noticable pain.
Squats
Points to consider
- 155lb for 5x10 with 5 to 7 minute rests
- successful reps: 10, 10, 10, 10, 10
- See the back vid to notice the left side of the bar going lower than the right. How to fix?
- Next time I'll try to focus on a more even bar. My tendancy is to feel like the right hand is losing grip and that's an indication of asymmetry.
- I think that bar isn't being centered properly on my back based on the view of the center knurling relative to my neck.
Overhead press
Points to consider
- 5x5 @ 80lb with 3 to 4 min rests
- Didn't feel too hard and most of the reps felt fluid
Deadlift
Points to consider
- 1x5 @ 215lb
- Ripped pant at knee during warmup. still finished the sets, but the torn need was annoying and slightly threw off my form as I wasn't trying to increase the size of the tear
- Careful of lower back. I was able to concentrate on hamstring/glute engagement, but the torn pant leg was throwing off my attention in the later reps of the final set
