This week was definetely going to be approached in a way where I could get some recovery in from the 3 week gear cycle I did for squat where I was also squatting 4x per week
I am taking out the 4th day… usually thursday, from here on in. Sunday squats will be taken out as well when we get close to the meet. I didnt really hit any heavy lifts this week so hopefully ill feel better next week.
