Week 1 Squats/Week 2 Military Press double up

Back into the gym after taking 3 days off. Missed squats last week so did them with week 2 of OHP today.
Sets of 5 for squats - 285X5, 305X5, 325X12! (PR).
Last set called for 5+ so just went for it. Had my training partner so concentrated on form and depth for the first 5 then just grinded out 7 more. This felt really good and that is a rep PR for me with 325 lbs. Guess it pays to rest.

Went straight into military/OHP and some assistance work. Could have done more assistance work but ran out of time. Week 2 calls for sets of 3.
OHP - 150X3, 160X3, 170X7.
Seated DB press - 60X15, 60X12.
Front raise - 30X10, X10.

Again I find the OHP numbers light but I guess its really the last set that counts for PR's and strength. Next week will definitely do some more assistance work for the shoulders. Pumped for deads tomorrow.
