Very happy with this, when I loaded 120kg on the bar I was expecting this to be my top weight for sets of 5 but hit 8 reps comfortably and went up. Could have probably ground out another 1 or 2 on 150kg even but in light of the shoulder injury didn't want to risk pushing it to failure. Form was tight for what seems like the first time ever. Every set I focused on retracting my scapula and setting up better, and as a result strength felt good, maybe better than pre injury! Right pec firing well and descent had much more control, don't think my form has ever been this good, maybe hurting my shoulder was a blessing in disguise!

Deadlift

The shortest session ever due to time constraints and not wanting to overdo it as still feeling it from bench and all the scap rehab I've been doing


Deadlift
DOH and beltless
70kg x8
120kg x6
140kg x5
Straps on
160kg x5
170kg x5
180kg x5

Felt good, have hit 190kg for 5x5 3 months ago but didn't expect to be strong as this is the first time I've gone heavy in 2 month due to my knee and haven't train at all for the last 2-3 weeks.

Felt really good, deadlifts were fast and efficient. My form feels great right now and my consistency of form rep by rep, set by set, week by week seems to be bang on. Today felt like almost like speed work with only the last couple of reps on my final set slowing slightly at lockout. Hopefully this is a positive from dropping weight as im not fighting to find my starting position

Squat

Threw the 15kg bumper on the stack for the last set as felt I was sacrificing form for depth and lower back was feeling it
Currently squatting barefoot through rehab and with the 25/25/20/20/15 stack my hip crease it just below the top of my knee as this will only improve once I'm back in oly shoes, however I may still try and lower it slighty

Lower back was shot so left out RDL and pendlays

More lower back pumps mad today hard going. Last rep on 190kg was hitched but only because of my back, could definitely have locked it otherwise. Finished with TRX row to take lower back out of the equation but felt really good for my shoulder so may make this a staple in future
