Progress.

If you want to put in your warmup work, go for it.

It is your log, after all.

Sometimes I do if I think other people would find it interesting... Bbt most of the time I do not.

To be fair, most of my Olympic lifting workouts are warmups for 5/6 'heavy' reps.

Last Wednesday I didn't train because I was ill.

Friday I felt like rubbish but I trained anyway, I just felt tired and drained.

Squat: 87.5kg 5x5
OHP: 37.5kg 5x2, 35kg 5x2, 32.5kg 5x1
Dead: 80kg 5x1

Today went and felt great! Hopefully it will keep that way.

Squat: 87.5kg 5x3, 90kg 5x2
Bench: 45kg 5x2, 47.5kg 5x3
BOR: 32.5kg 5x5

Alright, I'm back! Last time I trained before today was on the 7th... something I'm not particularly proud of but I'm hoping it was worth it!

5th
Squat: 90kg 5x5
OHP: 37.5kg 1x5, 35kg 3x5, 30kg 1x5
Dead: 85kg 1x5

7th
Squat: 90kg 5x5
Bench: 47.5kg 5x5
BOR: 35kg 3x5, 32.5kg 2x5

Today
Squat: 72.5kg 1x5, 80kg 4x5
OHP: 25kg 1x5, 27.5kg 2x5, 30kg 2x5
Dead: 70kg 1x5

Not sure if it'd be a good idea for me to switch routine now, even if it is to 3x5, squatting, especially 5x5 at 90kg killed me for the rest of the workout if I recall correctly! Will see how things go, trying to focus on improving my form now.

So you took nearly three weeks off, got tired, and think you need a new routine?

Have a think about that for a second...

Okay, putting it like that makes me sound really dumb... We'll see how it goes.

Today

Squat: 80kg 1x5, 85kg 1x5, 80kg 3x5
Bench: 45kg 5x5
BOR: 35kg 5x5

Squat: 85kg 5x5

Fairly worried about my form (on all exercises really). Wouldn't mind getting some videos recorded but as you saw with past videos my gym is constantly packed

() meaning I can't steal plates to lean the phone on and as I'm now training on my own, getting a friend to record isn't possible either.

Don't want to keep increasing weight and risk of injury when chances are I'm using bad form, mostly worried about my back. Is there any OCUK training meets planned for this year?
