I added 2" (each) to those bad boys over the 9 weeks of this training. Think about it... big picture... 9 weeks... 3 x week... 27 leg workouts

THoughts on this?
Back today
Deads, 12,10,8,5,5,5,5,5 --> I won't max out this week, not good to do singles every week, correct??
Straight bar or tbar rows - i've done tbar the last 4 weeks, should I change? 10,8,6,6
close grip lat pull x 4
wide grip x 4
shrugs x 4
yesterday I trained and I am paying for it...stupid! It will not happen again and my trainer was livid. So am I..but it helps me to eat more when I normally would cut cals....what's worse, OT or undereating?? Double edge....
I did box squats (new) 5x5 with a 10, and a 12
I did bench 5x5
close feet leg press 10,8,6,6
leg ext x 3
and nds 5x5 abs.....good routine but I am sore.....today was usual cardio and I got back tonight...I should take today off but I wont....pussy

Jeff.....this is about the question from ym journal.
Yeah, I really try to focus on pushing just the top-end set.....sometimes the top 2 sets. As far as singles, I steer clear, unless I speciically push them for a few weeks. Singles on the deadlift especially blow my CNS out......I didn't have a problem with you doing them initially, as you were noplace near your potential. You once weighed 255 with a 500+ dead, so I didn't think initially pushing very aggressively would be an issue.
You've made some progress, so maybe now focus on pushing the top-end set or the last 2 sets even, and bag the singles for a bit. Shoot to add 5lbs a week to the top set on upper body presses and 5-10 on squats and DLs and see how that works out for you.
