Yesterday, Tuesday, some stretching and qigong and a short walk.
Today, per Marty Gallagher, I am going to have my own one-person powerlifting meet.
NB: Posting this blog entry now with 2 video links, more video links will be added later.
Bodyweight - a new low since the July 8 meet - 151.4 lbs. Not dieting, just eating clean for the most part but not starving myself, e.g., yesterday I had almond butter and bananas at breakfast time, ricotta, almonds, and maple syrup at noon, a 4-egg omlette with some of yesterday's leftover sausage and pepper plus a ton of cheese, and then had an iced latte (homemade) with half-and-half and two handfuls of chocolate chips for dessert.
Warmup - walk, cossack sequence, dislocates and OHS w/ stick
This is the plan and the execution:
SQ - first time doing these in 4 months or so
Side view back squat, try for just below parallel - all reps, even warmups
FSQ: bar x 5, SQ: bar x 5
FSQ: 95 x 3, SQ: 95 x 3
FSQ: 135 x 1, SQ 135 x 5 - videotaped, looked too high, will tape the rest as well

SQ: 135 x 3 - looked good to me, maybe too deep, though

155 x 2 - looked OK
http://youtu.be/fbx-CuH0zOg
175 x 2 - maybe a little high, starting to feel a bit nervous about the weight

195 x (failure - 1) - got only 1 rep, just not used to the weight on my back, didn't feel comfortable

BP - Marty says to try staying wide
Trying ring fingers on rings for now - this is wider than I'd been doing.
DB BP: 25 lb. plates x 5
bar x 5, 95 x 5, 135 x 5
150 x 2 - start video, looks good
http://youtu.be/f0aLPJC3fGY
165 x 1 - felt better
http://youtu.be/cWRCYnVwhyQ
180 x 1 - slow but looked better than it felt
http://youtu.be/5yxSAfoEuqM
185 x fail - 180 felt like what I had today, and I guess it was - got it off my chest but stalled shortly thereafter. I really, really, really, really, really hate missing a lift.

DL 275 x (failure - 1)
Haven't DL'ed since meet on July 8.
225 x 5 warmup, double overhand grip, videod this and the rest. Here's the clip

275 x 6, alternated which hand was over/under, started left under - this probably was more like failure - 2 but it felt like enough.
