With the meet less then 5 days away, our tapering schedule called for working up to our last warm up with squats. We decided to press a couple light bench presses to continue to get used to our new found ways and pull a couple light deadlifts just to stretch out.
Backsquat:
Worked up to 315# 2x1
Bench Press:
1x5 @ 135#
1x5 @ 185#
Deadlift:
1x5 @ 135#
1x5 @ 185#
1x5 @ 225#
The squats felt nice. My knees are a little sore from previous training but I am confident that they will be fresh come meet time. The bench press also went well. I think I figured out how to remember where to place my feet. I think I could have done 185# for 15 reps no sweat. Deadlift felt good to stretch out. Overall this was a relaxing and easy day. I am so excited.
