This week was the time to overreach and push the limits. Tuesday I fell short of 265x8 (shooting for a new 8RM) so I added some sets at the end to make up for it. Wednesday was very tough. I never pull sumo and my hip mobility is horrendous. The first set was mediocre, but the last two sets my form was terrible and I'm still feeling a little ache in my back because of it. I probably had more in the squats, but my back was tweaked a tiny bit from Wednesday so I was hesitant to be aggressive. Next week is the deload and hopefully I can get rid of the back pain so I don't have to break from training.
