Started with 2" paused bench for sets of 6 working up to RPE9, then taking of 5% and doing a couple more sets. I ended up taking off 7.5% because I didn't know if I'd get more than 1 set if I only took off 5%. Very pleased with the progress here, with 1 caveat. My left elbow was on FIRE after I got to 190#'s and my right shoulder wasn't loving the heavier weights. I'm feeling pretty good this morning though, so hopefully it was a small reaction to the heavier weights. Next were sets of 10 on squats. I feel like I took a minor setback with my knees from Tuesday, so I tried to take it easier today on high rep squats. I've also been in a caloric deficit, and I'm probably still feeling Tuesday's workout in my legs. Got through them ok, knees felt OK. Finished up with DB incline and inverted rows superset. The workout called for 3 backoff sets, but I felt 2 was more than enough after benching and with how my elbow and shoulder were feeling.
I'm a bit conflicted. I feel training is going really well, but volume is ramping up and I'm trying to loose some weight. I'm not sure if my body is going to handle the increased volume and caloric deficit well. I think I'll email Mike and ask for his input.
Nutrition/Weight:
I weighed 191.8 this morning.
