Saturday 14 Jul 12

Rest day.


Decided to take the day off from Olympic weightlifting to allow my body to fully recover for Sunday's squat attempts.  I'm confident that I will reach my goal tomorrow of squatting 315#.  I have followed this entire 16-week program and have yet to fail, even though the numbers seemed unreachable almost every session. I have done all of the hard work, and now it's time to reap the benefits.  The fact that I've been able to successfully handle each set thus far leads me to believe that I properly judged my 1 RM at the beginning of the cycle.  That, in turn, leads me to believe that I should be able to achieve a 10% gain from the program, which was Tom's goal from the outset.  It's judgment day -- 315# of bust!
