Lol. Not having creatine for a few days isn't going to affect your lifting. You do a lot of volume and didn't get enough rest

I haven' lifted sence wendsday and i got 12 hours of sleep everynight between then and yesterday. i did loose all of the creatine weight, all 8 pounds. so i think the creatine is what did it, cuz my military press was harder then it shoulda been.

What do you mean creatine weight? You mean water? Dude, I've never heard of such a thing. I've been using creatine many years and I've never dropped weight even if I stopped for a week.

As far as things being harder that could have been long enough for the creatine to affect things but who knows? Wnen you skip that many days, depending on how long you've been training you can tend to fall back in strength a little and things will feel harder than they should. It's pretty normal really. Your nervous system sometimes needs to be reminded that there is business to deal with or it can quickly de-adapt. This is not always the case for everyone at all times given only a 5 day period but it should be expected somewhat.

BTW, if cleans are interfering with squats you should consider alternating cleans with deadlifts instead. You could increase the volume on deadlifts probably.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.

im hoping ill be fine if i just do them after my squats, we'll find out friday though.

fun lift

didn't really follow the program today, we had a legpress competition and i came in third (out of 5 linemen) i got 765 (if the sled only weights 45) going all the way down almost hitting my chest. the winner was my huge friend (6'6" 305) he got 950 and second place was 875. besides that this is what i did

military press: 3x5 at 130 PR
clean: 3x3 at 180
(after legpress competition)
A2G squat: 2x10 at 185 (almost hit my ass of my ankle, WAY farther down then anyone else is squatting and it doesn't hurt my back with so little weight on it )
pull-ups 2x3 at BW 2x2 at BW

another bench lift, very happy

bench: 3x5 at 215
squat: 2x5 at 275 1x3 at 275
dips: 2x8 at BW
deadlift: 1x5 at 315 PR

did some footwork drills after squat for about 15 minutes id count it as cardio i think im gunna add curls and skullcruchers friday, what'd you guys think?

my legs were destroyed from monday, idk whats wrong, if im not getting enough protein or if my running is interfearing with them healing or what but its not cool. i got about 7.5 hours of sleep so thats not it. also ive got a question, should i reset on squat and really focus on doing them A2G because ive been only going down to parallel for a few weeks (sence i went over 225)?


bench: maxed at 250 PR
military press: 2x5 at 135 1x3 at 135 PR
squat: (warm-up = 1x5 at 135 1x5 at 185 1x5 at 225)3x5 at 245 (tried 275 and couldn't even do 3)
cleans: 2x3 at 175 3x3 at 155
bent over rows: 3x5 at 165
pull-ups: 3x3 2x2

rest, and go WAY past parallel

Stop screwing with the program and see what happens. You went from 15 reps squat to 40 reps along with a leg press. Then back to 15 reps.....the lighter volume and the heavier stuff just has different effects on you're recovery so you get sore. You also gave you're body a period of time with greatly lowered intensity. And who the hell cares about a leg press comp? Everyone can do a lot on that.

As Sentinel said, go low on squats.
