Experiments

Weights last night...

Squat: 92.5kg 3x5, OH Press: 42.5kg 3x5, PowerClean: 67.5 3x5-ish.

I failed on a few of my PC attempts in the second and third sets, due to what felt more like cardiovascular failure rather than muscular failure. Next time I'm gonna try doing 5 sets of 3 instead of 3 sets of 5, and see if that helps.

I'm also embarking on a diet experiment. Since I've reached my PR on all of my lifts, I'm gonna try and use the momentum to push through the ceiling that has beaten me a couple of times before. I think that the only way to get through is to put on a bit of size and weight, and to do that I need to eat. Lots. All the time.

This should also help with recovery times, and avoiding injury. I may put on a bit of fat as well, but I'm gonna try to eat as clean as I can to keep it to a minimum.

Basically I'm gonna eat mostly what I usually do, but up the serving sizes, and snack on fruit and nuts between meals.

I'll see how I go after 2 weeks. I definitely wouldn't mind putting on a kilo or two.
