Good afternoon everyone,
Today was that max effort squat with 100lbs chains. I made it to 385lbs without wraps. From there I jumped to 425lbs with wraps (that is 525lbs at the top).
Took me two attempts to smash this weight, but I got it. Had to get my head and technique correct !

Hit max effort on the bands for bench. used the black mini bands.
Stopped a bit shy of my max--not allowed to risk missing the set!

465 two board - YouTube
465 two board. Not a bad baseline for about 3 months out (depending)
After this we did 4-5 sets off a 3 board against bands for triceps.
Followed by Dumbbell shoulder press (3 sets light)
Then some rope push downs.
Heavy weight takes it out of you!

275 push press - YouTube
Sunday is always accessory work.
Did 5x5 with the buffalo bar 285lbs. Strict pause at the bottom and practiced my leg drive as well.
After this we took a break and did max effort push press (video above) got 275lbs. Can't complain with that. Last time I failed to get 275 and it took me two attempts to get 250lbs. So this is a 25lbs PR.
After the push press i kinda forget to right everything down because really who cares? Some triceps with the dumbbells and bands, then some pulldowns. Yippee
