Well, today was an odd day. I opened my acels which a 4.04s which is pretty slow for me, and I thought that it was going to be a really flat day but then I got it down to 3.99s on the next one and had four runs within 0.01s which were all 0.03-0.04s off of my pb. This is very promising, after deloading again after next week I should definitely be able to hit sub 3.90s. They felt good, besides the first run it was probably my most consistent series ever.
   Weights were another story all together, once I got up to 320lb's for my second set of squats I over rotated on the 4th rep and had to bail. I haven't been making the progress I would have liked in the weight room recently. I think the routine has grown a bit stale and I'm just overloading myself. I think what I need is to deload and change the stimulus. After one more workout of sets of 5 I'm going to test my 1RM on Thursday and power-celan the following Saturday, then go into a six week power block. The squats will be dropping down to 3's and the primary focus will be Olympic Lifts. After those six weeks I will be retesting my squat again as well as my power clean.
