Back Squat, Deadlift, Push Press

Back Squat
135 x 3
185 x 3
205 x 3
215 x 3
225 x 3

Continuing to go up in weight on the back squats. Last week with Tom I did 215 x 3. With Tom's encouragement to go heavier (and Pat's line of "It is like running...you can run an 8 min mile all day long, but you will never run a 5 min mile without going faster), I decided to up the weight and just go for it. And 225lb felt great! I know that for next time I can do 225, and even add weight, to continue challenging myself.

Deadlift
225 x 3
295 x 2
295 x 2
305 x 2

Again Tom's encouragement on this one. Last time I did deadlifts at 295, Tom said "Tell me you at least used 300lbs". That motivated me today to bump it to 305 x 2.

Push Press
135 x 5
165 x 5
165 x 4
165 x 5

Laces to bar: 3 sets of 10 reps

20 minutes of incline walking on the treadmill (6% incline, 3.8mph pace)
