Then go dig up some patches in the garden.

Yesterday:

1x3: deadlift 229 kg
1x3: deadlift 209 kg
3x10: db floor press 46 kg
3x8: cheat curl 49 kg

8x4: front squat 109 kg
2x4: front squat 89 kg
3x12: pullup
6x5: military press 75 kg

So, now I’m wondering if I keep doing a set of 4 front squats every minute, dropping the weight every few sets, how much would I have to drop the weight to by the end, to do a total of 25 sets for 100 reps in 25 minutes.

6x1: front squat 137 kg
3x12: pullup
2x20: military press 51 kg

5x3: deadlift 189 kg (set every minute)
3x10: db floor press 46 kg
3x8: cheat curl 49 kg

Tried something different with the deadlifts. More total volume in less time than usual, including warmup it was all done in 15 minutes, and the work sets only took about 4 minutes and 15 seconds. As it turns out, tiring but doable. I was pretty out of breath before the last set, but now I feel less crushed than after doing one set of 10 with the same weight (which is a tiny bit over double bw for me these days).

8x4: front squat 109 kg
6x5: military press 75 kg
3x12: pullup

Cleaning the bar from the floor for the first rep of the presses, instead of front-squatting it off sawhorses like I did for the past few weeks, since my right elbow and forearm are feeling fine now. For some reason catching the bar after a clean bothered them, but not anymore.

10x1: front squat 129 kg
3x12: pullup
2x20: military press 51 kg

1x3: deadlift 229 kg
1x3: deadlift 209 kg

That’s all today.

Since my schedule for next week is going to be messed up and not entirely predictable, thought I’d do something today. Could just do the missing upper body lifts from yesterday, but naaah. Instead, let’s do a set of front squats every minute until we reach 100 total reps.

12x5, 5x8: front squat 69 kg

Started off doing sets of 5, but after 50 reps it felt like I was pretty sure I could make it to the end, so I did sets of 8 after 60 reps. I was pretty exhausted by the last set.

10x1: front squat 131 kg
6x5: military press 75 kg
3x12: pullup

Still a bit sore from the high-volume squats two days ago, but not too bad.

1x6, 1x5: deadlift 209 kg
3x10: db floor press 46 kg
3x8: cheat curl 49 kg

1x5, 7x4: front squat 109 kg
6x5: military press 75 kg
3x12: pullup
