Olympic Squat, no belt
45 x 12
135 x 6
225 x 4
275 x 2
315 x 1
335 x 1
Deadlift, conventional, no belt
405 x 2
435 x 3 x 2
Five days ago I squatted 325 for six sets of six reps. Today I warmed up for deadlifts with squats (which are the best way to warm up for deadlifts). I got to a single with 315 then a really uncomfortable single with 335 after which I had to call it quits and move on to deadlifts.
325 x 6 x 6... now barely 335 x 1. What gives? Is five days just not enough to recover anymore?
Probably not when it's a really hard squat session and you have a modicum if strength.
I probably simply went too far with the volume at too high a percentage of max. Instead of working up to 325 x 6 x 6 over the course of a few weeks, I made it the target for the day. I might have actually been okay a few days later if I'd limited the 325 to three sets of six.
