Not where I want my squat, but without safety bars or spotter it’s a little tough to get a true max. PR was 305 and would love to be back there.

BS = 210lbs (pr)
SP = 110lbs (pr)
DL = 280lbs
TOTAL = 600lbs
Completed Monday 10/22 (rest day) due to conflicts earlier in the week. I probably had more in me for both BS and DL but I'm satisfied.
I finally got a rack over the weekend. Wow that makes a difference.

Skipped the back squat b/c I don’t have a rack & was feeling a bit beat up from a previous workout. 😅 DL: 245#s (all time PR is 265) SP: 105#s

Thanks so much to pat and Meghan for their humor and education. Learned so much! And thanks for adapting around the 7month pregnant lady 😅 still fun to learn, even if it was 90 degrees in October. That’s Fresno for you 🤣

5 reps of each exercise with the barbell
3 reps of backsquat with 95lb 50% of my max
then I tried to do 1 rep of 185lb which was my 95% of my max but felt a big pain in my lower abs and I stop the workout

Back Squat: 295
Press: 135
DL: 3x5@315
came dangerously forward on final back squat, but was able to pull it back and thankfully not hurt myself.
took barbell from the ground for the press which made it harder. Taxes my arms just a little extra before I could start the rep.
not enough plates for a 1RM DL, so just did a 3x5 strength set instead. (New plates arrive soon though!)

Max weight I have at home is 285# plus my back has been a bit out of sorts lately so I went lighter and focused on technique in the BS and DL:
Felt good afterwards, but we'll see what tomorrow brings.

I was a bit nervous about this as I haven't been able to go heavy on these three movements for the past 7 months. I've been doing a lot of muscular endurance work I guess it paid off.

Deadlift, 355lb
TOTAL - 785 lbs
Tried 285 squat but felt like I didn't get deep enough so I didn't count it. Tried 280, went all the way down, got out of the hole but ran out of steam.
Failed my first attempt at 155 shoulder press so dropped to 150 then gave it a 2nd try for my last attempt and got it.
355 was 2nd DL attempt. Didn't feel like I had anything left so stopped there.

Pretty pleased with this. Squat and deadlift numbers are best I’ve had all year, and press ties for best. Still way off all-time numbers, but that is okay. Good to have something to work towards.
Hatte mega viel Spaß mit die Teilnehmer aus Zürich, gut gemacht und viel Erfolg!

Champions Club Scaling Notes
RANT
Nothing to rant about
WHAT ABOUT THE MOVEMENTS
Back squat - squatting with a ton of weight, not a huge upright torso demand, and a little strategy
Press - pushing overhead with a lot of weight and a little strategy
Deadlift - squatting with an added demand on the midline and an emphasis on pushing... and a little strategy
WHAT ABOUT THE FORMAT
Once you warm up, you get 3 attempts to post the best lift you can, so if that's 3 failed attempts then your score is zero. Technique is assumed here.
TECHNIQUE SCALE
Pick one movement (probably squat or deadlift) and do a regular max effort session, maybe sets of 10 or 15 or so.
CONSISTENCY SCALE
AMRAP in 20 minutes of:
15 back squats
15 dumbbell strict press (or :45 handstand hold)
15 deadlifts
INTENSITY SCALE
As is
MY STUFF
I just did deadlifts. Used all 3 attempts to try 400-lbs. and I hit it on the last one. Back rounded a little. Highest weight I've lifted since I was 20 or so, but I used to allow my bad to round more. Back during the lockdown I wanted to see if I could do a 400-lb. deadlift and a 4:59 mile on the same day. I hit the mile but I couldn't budge 400 off the ground. I probably should've called someone today to see if they could pace me. Oh well.
GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 6

Nice - you are fast! I've been able to deadlift 400+ every year since 2010, but this may be the year that Father Time says no more. Best pull this year so far is 380.
