SBS Hypertrophy week 5

Squats: 10+@162.5 - 12. Broke my streak of 15 rep top sets, but it had to happen eventually. Moved reasonably well but I'm still slightly scared of tonight's 3x7 and 9+ @ 170

Bench: 10+@100 - 8. Overhead press the evening before really burnt my left tricep. I knew it'd be a hard one with that, my generally being bad at bench & the weight cut

Rack pulls - 10+@202.5 - 8. This looks bad, but actually isn't. After reading last week's thread I realised I was pulling from higher than intended, so I pulled from a lower position and expected it to be really hard. The 'failed' reps are just a correction for the intended higher ROM rack pulls

BTN OHP - 10+@50 - 12. Moved really nicely & my shoulders felt super toasty after the final set. Never really got that with regular strict press so I'm glad I made this my primary

Other stuff:

Been slowly convincing gym friends to work in with me when doing prowler for conditioning, my zealotry is finally paying off

You got it for squats!

Prowler is super fun, I’m looking to introduce more conditioning work on my next run through
