Novice LP. Session 61 (Greyskull Squats and Press)

BW - 228

Bench -
232.5X3
210X5, 5

Squat -
385X3
345X5

Chin-Ups-
BW+15X3, 3
BWX7, 5

232.5X3 is an all around PR on bench at the heaviest weight I've ever benched.  RPE 9.5.  Back off sets felt pretty good.  2nd back-off set in video.


385 is an all around PR on squat as the heaviest weight I've ever lifted on any of the main lifts.  Felt pretty good, although the right adductor is still KILLING me on the warm-up sets.  May start doing the grizzled, old "ton of reps with the empty bar" warm-up protocol that so many vets go on about.  Needed 8 reps for a Rep PR with 345, and that was clearly NOT there.  That was surprising and frustrating.


243 (BW+15)X3 is a Rep PR on chins.  2nd set in the video.  Felt pretty good.  RPE 9, I think.  First BW set felt good, but the bottom always seems to suddenly drop out.
