Strength Training
Deadlifts: 135x5, 185x5, 225x3, 275x1, 315x5, 315x5.
Pin Press: 45x5x2, 95x5, 135x3, 165x1, 185x2, 187.5x2, 187.5x1, 187.5x1.
Instead of power clean, I did deadlifts, 2x5, at 85% of my work weight earlier in the week. I then tried pin press again, but I don't think it's the right thing to do right now. It's a partial motion lift, and seems like it should load heavier than 5 lbs over my heavy press day to be yielding results. Back to the drawing board.

Strength Training
Squats: 45x5x2, 180x5, 250x3, 325x1, 357.5x5, 325x5, 325x5.
Press: 45x5x2, 75x5, 105x3, 140x1, 169x5, 169x5, 169x5, 169x5, 169x4.
Lat Pull-downs: 145x10, 145x10, 145x10.
Stretch: hams, quads, glutes.
Squat work set felt really good. Press was going well; rep 5 on each set was a grind, and seemed to require a little more layback than the other reps. I think I short-changed my rest between set 2 and 3, and I think that may have resulted in the failed last set. On set 5, I drove rep 5 up once, and it died about 3 inches shy of lockout. I took some breaths, reset, and drove it up again....and it died in the same spot, again. I had never worked so hard to fail a rep twice in my life!

Strength Training
Deadlifts: 135x5, 185x5, 255x3, 330x1, 375x5.
Pin Press: 45x5x2, 95x5, 115x3, 135x3, 140x3, 140x3, 140x3, 140x3, 140x3, 140x3.
PR on deadlift. I took video of the set, and reps 1 and 2 were nice. After that, it all slowed down and started to grind. Moving some things around and giving pin press another go. After seeking some programming advice, moving bench press to Friday and doing pin press on Tuesdays. Right now, just practicing the movement to get it better.

Work set on squats felt good. Nice and smooth, and no shifting onto the toes. Second set of press was a horrible one. Got out of the slot on the first rep, and lost balance on 2 more of the reps. Really took a lot out of me. Rested, and got the remaining sets, and did another set of 3 reps to get them all in. Going to add weight to the next workout.

This set of deadlifts felt better than the week before, which is encouraging as it keeps going up. Getting more reps of the pin press is helping.

This was a trying day in the gym. First work set of squats, I hit rep 1, then got forward on my toes in rep 2, couldn't recover it, and fell forward into the rack. My buddy helped me raise it back up, and after a few minutes rest, got back under it, and got a full set of 5.
On press, I failed rep 5 on the first set, but tried to put it up twice. Other 4 sets went to 5, so I did one more set of 5 to round it out.

Deadlifts: 135x5, 190x5, 265x3, 340x1, 385x5.
Pin Press: 45x5x2, 95x5, 115x3, 145x3, 145x3, 145x3, 145x3, 145x3.
Lying Triceps Extensions: 60x10, 60x10, 60x10.
Stretch: hams, quads, glutes.
Another PR on deadlift. This time, the set seemed to go pretty good. Practice on the pin press is making it better. Hopefully, in a few more weeks, I've got the weight up to where the stress is actually contributing to progress.

Strength Training
Squats: 45x5x2, 185x5, 260x3, 330x1, 370x5, 330x5, 330x5.

Lat Pull-downs: 157.5x10, 157.5x10, 157.5x10.
I pushed the heavy press day up to 10 singles; 186 was my last PR before I had to change things up.
5/27/2022
Strength Training
Deadlifts: 135x5, 185x5, 225x3, 275x1, 325x5, 325x5.
Bench Press: 45x5x2, 115x5, 155x5, 205x5, 225x5.
Lying Triceps Extensions: 62.5x10, 62.5x10, 62.5x10.
Pushed all the warmup sets on bench to 5 reps each. Since weight seems to be the limiting factor, tinkering with the volume a little bit.

Strength Training
Squats: 45x5x2, 185x5, 260x3, 330x1, 372.5x5, 330x5, 330x5.

Failed on to get 5 on the last set of press. Rested briefly, got back under it, and did a set of 3. The squat is starting to get really, really hard. The squat anxiety is real.
