Saturday - Smolov Jr Squats, Press Max Attempt

I was feeling terrible in the legs after yesterdays PRs. That was NOT SMART. I knew it wasn't smart at the time, but I powered through it today. Next week, with +15 lbs, that won't be an option and I will need to cut the Oly lifts way down to get the squats right.

Back Squat: (10x3x85%) -this took about 50 min
-135 x 5
-185 x 3
-225 x 3
-285 x 3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3

Press: (attempted max, not that I really wanted to after jerks last night, but I wasn't going to be able to accomplish much with sets across either. Gave it a good shot)
-95 x 5
-115 x 3
-135 x 1
-155 x 1
-170 x 0,0,0 (attempted PR, max 165)

Weighted Chin:
-BW x 4
-40 x 5, 5, 5 (this felt really easy, I'm getting back into the groove of doing these)

Weighted Situp:
-60 x 10, 10, 10

Notes:
-those squats were punishing. I am not looking forward to doing that with 300 next Saturday. No heavy pulling off the floor next week. Gotta go light.
