Cycle 3 Week 3 Squats - End of Cycle 3

Trained at 1030am. Really good sleep after working til 1100pm.

Squats Warmup - 135X15, 225X10, 315X5
Working sets - 340X5, 380X3, 435X2. (PR).
Assistance work - 315X8, X6.
Pause squats (2 sec. pause on the hole - 225X10X2.

The 1st rep on the last working set was ugly. My bar placement was wrong and it threw me off, I really had to work to correct it. The second rep felt awesome. I feel if I didn't have to correct the first rep I could have tripled 435. Really need to focus on proper bar placement every time. Either way, it was a pretty epic squat session. Feels good to still be breaking PR's.
Deload week with conditioning next week. Gonna go real light on the weights to let my body heal up for the next cycle. Going to adjust my calorie intake as well so I don't gain any weight when I'm not lifting as heavy.
