Beginning Thoughts:
I decided to just nail this day. Box Squats, Pull-ups, Deadlifts and Broad Jump. After today I am done with MS.
Workout:
Box Squats
- 345 lbs x 1 rep

Deadlifts
- 355 lbs x 1 rep - pretty hard
- 365 lbs x 1 rep - hard
- 385 lbs x FAIL x 3 attempts

Pull-ups
- +10 lbs x 3 reps
- +15 lbs x 3 reps

Broad Jump
- 6'3
- 6'6
- 6'7

Overall Impression:
So today was sort of saddening and yet pleasing. Here are my overall gains from MS compared to 4 months ago.

Code:
                            4 Months Ago                        Maximum Strength
Body Weight               175 lbs                                  195 lbs
Deadlift                      365 lbs                                  365 lbs
Box Squat                   315 lbs                                  345 lbs
Military Press               160 lbs                                   175 lbs
Pull-up 3RM                 +25 lbs                                   +15 lbs
Broad Jump                   6'5                                             6'7
Since my DL showed no improvement, I am going to work on getting the bar off the floor. Doing all those rack deadlifts with 365 lbs didn't help much when I couldn't even clean the bar off the floor. I will be doing Deficit Deadlifts and Snatch Grip Deadlifts from now on.

My next program is 90% finalized. I will be posting it when I fully confident that this is what I am going to be doing.

As for the rest of this week: I am just gonna do some random work. I will be doing some light(er) lower body work and more aggressive upper body work.

I hope everyone has a good week
