I squatted. It was light... like 135 pounds light... and my back hurt the next morning. Not a lot, AND the heating pad I have been using nightly broke a few days ago, so that could be it... but I am still very unhappy. We will see what tomorrow brings when I squat 140, and DL 185.
Bench and Press continue to improve. Tonight I did 200x4 on Press which is a HUGE PR!! The planned workout was 3x5@192.5, but - as usual - I am an ADD riddled fool, so I threw 200lbs on the bar and tried for five. I failed, and that failure (plus some bad form in set 2, and insufficient rest before set 4) caused me to miss rep five in the final work-set, but I am still counting tonight as a win.
I went back down to the planned weight of 192.5 and got 5, 5, and 4. I am going to continue micro-loading to 195 next Press day and see what happens.
*BONUS* I had very little pain between my shoulder blade and lower neck/upper back/spine, where I had LOTS of pain last press session. This is VERY encouraging!!
Still doing five pound jumps in Bench - not micro-loading yet. I got 3x5@255 on Saturday.
