That's frustratingly close to twelve plates! Still, eleven it is. You'll get there!

Indeed. Probably will hit in exactly one year from yesterday.
Nice mobility. Maybe next time rack it before taking a power nap.

I use the free fall as part of my spinal mobility work.
Excellent display of parasympathetic control.

225lb x 17 (video will be uploaded later tonight). I plan to hit some higher reps/volume w. 135 and 225 for the next few weeks.

Here's yesterday's 225 x 17. I think the best I've ever done w. 225lb was 36 reps and that was probably 20 years ago. We'll see - maybe!

Doesn't count for this since I had already hit 405x6, but I managed 415x5 on Saturday. That means I'm at least back to where I was a couple months ago after being sick for basically 3 weeks last month, which set me back in the gym quite a bit. After 3 weeks of being back at it I'm finally back to full strength so can hopefully start making some progress again.
Meet in 11 days, first time squatting 100 kg in probably 2 years. was slow but didn't stop.
Have been squatting only semi-regularly since last Fall - did a couple of months, took the next couple of months off, and back at it for the last 6 weeks, basically just adding 5 kg to the heaviest single once a week. On March 5, was 70 kg.
Maybe I go 95, 102.5, 110 at the meet. Maybe. Lifetime PR is 107.5.
NB: Bar is 25 kg sq bar, so 37.5 on each end, not 40. Body is 69 years old, 70 kg today, 67.5 kg in 10 days.
