Thursday Squats week 3 cycle 2

Didn't think I would be able to train today so was going to have a rest day but........turned out that I could so I went and squatted. Got to try out my new knee sleeves (raw contest approved).
5/3/1 week

Squats - after warmup - 285X5, 325X3, 355X10! (PR), 225X10, 225X10.

That was it....did some foam roller on my lower back after.

355X10 is most definitely a rep PR for me. Had a spotter and motivator. Depth and form I think were good for the first 5-6 reps. The last few were probably a little ugly, but they were squats nonetheless.

So thats it for the second cycle of 5 3 1 for me. For those of you that are following this and care....I will be testing maxes on Monday or Tuesday so stay tuned, I will post right after recovering. Once (hopefully new) maxes are determined and a deload week I will start a new cycle with new numbers. Keeping in mind, it has only been 6 weeks on the program and seriously training for powerlifting.
