Today was a good day.

Volume day.

Squats: 2x5 @ 75.8kg and then 3x5 @ 78.3kg.
OHP: 1x5, 3x4 @ 40kg. Can't crack 5x5 @ 40kg after doing squats, even if I can do much more for 2 or 3 reps. I mean the ratio of what I can do 5x5 vs what I can do 1x3 is probably much less than the 90% that the method suggests.

Deadlifts: 1x4 @ 100kg. Back was rounding so I cut 1 rep short.

Brief arm work: did (gasp) 1 set of curls. Also walked around the gym carrying 40lb DBs. A gym farmer's walk of sorts.

Recovery day
Squats: 2x5 @62.6kg
BP: 3x5 @ 54.6kg
Chins: 1x6, 1x4.5, 1x3 @ BW
Back extension: 5x10 @ BW

I can't get my chins to move up in quantity. I'm a couple of kgs heavier these days, so that may count...

Being doing some on and off training. Have a broken finger, so need to work around that. I have no grip whatsoever so deadlifts, pull ups and chin ups are out.

I have been squatting, OH pressing and even tried some bench pressing, but could not manage much weight with the broken finger (middle finger, I'm wearing a splint).
