Squat: 78.5 kg

I’m back! What was supposed to be a short break while waiting for new equipment turned into a 7 month break. But I’m lifting again since September 1, and today I had a workout worth blogging about:

  • Squat: 78.5 kg × 5, 5, 5
  • Press: 53.5 kg × 5, 4, 5
  • Deadlift: 88.5 kg × 5

The 78.5 kg squat is a new personal best. It was very heavy, but managable. Not much margin left, but hopefully, 80 kg will feel about the same next time. The press weight was a perfect challenge, but I missed a rep in the second set, because I got over-entusiastic and didn’t rest enough. Deadlift starts to feel heavy too, but I’m still a few kilos away from my personal best.
