5-24-11 Meso 3/Block 2/Week 1 Lower 1

Start of intensity block, still no belt (will add next week)

Low Stress, 5% Fatigue

Squat x 3 @ 9-10:
315 @ easy
410 @ 9
440 @ 10
460 @ 10
435 @ 9.5
435 @ 9.5
I was at a Gold's where the racks were setup such that I was forced to face the mirrors. This threw me off on the first sets and a little less on the latter sets. The 460 wasn't too hard and I was probably good for more. Seeing as how my best belted 3rm was 475, I was pretty stoked about this.

RDL's x 3 @ 9-10:
315 @ easy
405 @ 7
500 @ 11 (2 reps)
460 @ 10 (held the bar at top for about 10 breaths...alpha)

Decline Abs:
5 x 8 x 25 (switched to on the chest after first 2 sets)

Midwest humidity...was sweating more than anyone else in the gym. In my soaked clothes and chucks I weighed in at 246 after my workout. This probably puts me in high 230's in morning naked.

I'm contemplating what to do for July meet. I will try and keep the carbs low, and maybe to a bit of cardio the next few weeks on travel, but that's soooo tough. If I can keep myself under 240, then try to lose 10 lbs in the last month before the meet, then 10 lbs of water for 14-hour weigh in...I might try to do 220 weight class. Thoughts?
