Tues/Thurs/Fri Training

Catch-up on the log.  Note that I have been having some tightness in my right knee and had a bit of discomfort during Thursday's squats.  Deadlifts are totally pain free so will be focusing on them for a couple weeks and letting the knee heel.  I expect a quick recovery though I may be transitioning to a shoe with a lower heel as I feel like that might be part of the issue.

Well overall I cannot complain at a 62.5kg competition PR (27.5kg squat PR, 5kg bench PR, 17.5kg deadlift PR).  I think there is a lot of room for improvement and things will continue to move forward.  The suit and shirt felt quite loose today which I think is the reason for the slowing squats and dissapointing bench.  The 165kg raw bench in the warmup room moved like air so at least 185kg was there raw so I really have no excuse to be going under 500 anymore.

Anyways, back to training and building up to going 865kg+ for the all time CPU best.  This performance moved me into 4th so I definitely have my eyes set on the podium.
