Past couple of workouts, and some retrospect

So my back was still fucked up and I did my best to be smart and not hurt it more.

Tuesday
I can't really remember what all I did, I know I was pissed off and mad that I couldn't do what I wanted.

Thursday
Bench
warmup
135 x 5
185 x 5
225 x 3
255 x 1
285 x 1
315 x 1
I wasn't very happy with how this went but in retrospect its the most I have done with a wide grip in a while.

Downset
255 x 5 x 3 sets

Floor Press with swiss bar
175 x 10 x 4 sets

Pullups and some other stuff

Friday
Back Squats
135 x 5
185 x 5
225 x 5
275 x 5
I stopped here, I could feel some pain and knew it would be better to fight another day.

Belt Squats
2 x 10

Hip Lift
500lbs x 20 x 3 sets
These actually helped traction my back, really like these and I need to get a heavy lift  bar so I can go heavier.

Prowler
5 sets of 60' high handles 60' low handles, I almost died here.

Can't remember what else.

Sunday
Axle press out of rack
110 x 5
140 x 3
170 x 1
200 x 1
These were strict
220 x 1 leg drive
240 x 1
265 x miss my head was not into it here.
220 x 5 these felt good and I think I could have dbl this but I wanted to pass out.

Farmers Walks. Always a good idea to do these out in the frigid cold when you sick.
210 each hand x 100 feet with a turn x 3
I was actually happy about these, plus it seems pulling from the sides at a elevated height doesn't bother my back.

Deads, figured might as well see how fucked I still am.
135 x 5
225 x 5
315 x 3
385 x 1
425 x 1
475 x better not.
I basically have hardly any pull out of the bottom.

Snatch grip RDLs
5 sets x 3 reps up to 315.

Keg Loads
200 x 10 reps

Abs
3 x 20

I think I am on the right track to getting to be STRONG again. I have been chasing my good years, and I really miss them. I wish I could figure what the hell I am doing different, but I haven't. Gotta do some research this week over my logs to see what is missing.
