7th oct - mo power

fixed axle c&p
added weight
+30 x 5 / +60 x 5 / +90 x 5 -left their back on cleans was too f**ked

axle pp in rack against bands
20 x 3 / 40 x 3
50 x 8 x 6

axle pp without bands-(testing fatigued max)
50 x 3 / 70 x 3 / 90 x 1 / 100 x 1 / 110 x 1



including a top end single at the end of all speed workouts to make sure Im used to pressing in a heavily fatigued state something ive come a crop to in the past , pressing with bands teaches speed and optimal pressing line both of which are severely lacking at the moment

had a full week off with being a snotty mess still some left their but been good to rest the joints before next push thinking might be far more productive every 6th week have a week off

24th oct - break the bar gym

back squat - 1st normal squat in about 16 week -(beltless neoprene sleeves only)
60 3 x 5 / 100 3 x 3 / 140 x 3 / 150 x 3 / 160 x 1 / 170 x 1 / 180 x 1

front squat -beltless
60 3 x 3 / 100 3 x 3 / 120 x 2 / 140 x 1

deficit deadlift -beltless stood on 25kg plate, really slow eccentrics focussing on not losing tightness at the bottom keeping bar close
50 2 x 8 / 90 2 x 8 / 130 2 x 8 / 150 2 x 8

pullups
4 x 6 reps

squats went a lot better than I thought it would , box squats definetly preserved strength a fair bit till knee was up to it will keep those in with more accommodated resistance "speed day" wsb method

body is falling into a modified westside type training quite nicely everything felt fresh and responsive to the training knee was 100% , deficit deadlift technique seemed to click more today was able to maintain tightness in bottom expect the physio is mostly responsible for that

Technique seemed to click on stricts today few work sets in had a feel of a heavier weight for reps hopefully over 100 for reps in few weeks , bodyweight through being ill dropped to 117kg , feel its helped lose a bit of fat more than muscle to start pushing it again
