Training Update March 31, 2012

Good training week. I failed to complete a few sets as prescribed. So I'll need to make sure I eat plenty and get decent sleep. Otherwise the recovery part of training, the part that actually increases strength, won't be as effective and progress will stall.


Monday

Squat 235 3x5

Press 115 3x5

Deadlift 270 1x5

Thursday

Squat 240 5/5/3/2
Failed on the third set. I then did two more to keep to the planned volume
Bench Press 205 5/5/4/1
Same story as the squat.
Romanian Deadlift (RDL) 135 3x10

Chins 3x3


Saturday

Squat 240 3x5

Press 120 3x5

Deadlift 277.5 1x5

The deadlift sounds like an odd weight, I know. When I was done I looked at the weights and realized I forgot to put the 2.5 pounders on each side. My left side felt a little overworked but nothing more than I am used to due to my bum ankle on the right side. It turns out double checking the weight is a good idea.
