Today went fairly well, the time trials were slow, as I knew they were going to be. It's impossible to expect to have back to back jump workouts and then come back and set a 30m pb the next day. Hopefully next week will bring about some decent times. The fact that it was seven degrees Celsius (45 Fahrenheit) and raining didn't help either.
Weights today went better then expected, the weight lifting shoes I ordered from Rogue Fitness arrived, finally no more lifting in running shoes! I was amazed at how easily I was able to get down without rotating forward. I put on 300.5lb's for the last two sets at five reps, which is half a pound over my personal best at that number of reps. I definitely could have gone higher, maybe even three plates (but I'm sure if I did my technique would have gone by the waste side).
A happy accident was there was a bench behind the squat rack that, on my last set, I noticed I was grazing which was a good motivated, it showed me that I was getting full depth.
