Hi, getting back into it. I had high hopes but just felt sluggish in the gym. So, rather than 5 sets increasing to a 5RM on the 5th set, I did 4 sets and stopped at about 90%.
squats: 185, 210, 235, 260 - all x5
bench: 95, 115, 130, 145
cleans: 95, 110, 125, 135 - all x5 as well even though I've usually done them as x3.
During the squats I did not round my back which made me happy. Hopefully I can maintain that as I get back to my 5RM.
I should have started the bench at a higher weight.
Based on the Big 3! program from Starr, you should do a heavy day (100% of 5RM), light day (80% of 5RM), and medium day (90% of 5RM). This was kind of a medium day.
