Neck is better. Saw the chiropractor yesterday he instantly made it pain free with his Mr, Miyagi ways. Then I worked out and pushed it hard. Sore today but still have full range of motion so that's a win. Squats, deadlifts, and other leg work today.
Keep up the work everyone!

Nice work Ken, Christos & Huy!
Killer weights for your body weight, Ken!
Squats (back/wide stance/moderate weight & reps) / light chest & back / trail run/jog

Well my numbers aren't very impressive considering my size (6'1 / 272lbs) lol
I've never gone in and just gone for a PR. All of my PRs are what I was able to rep at the end of a squat session.
This week has been ...
- Alternating front & back squats/close stance - 225/145 3x10ea (Pause Squats)
- Front squat/close stance - 185 for 5x10 (haven't tried for a PR)
- Front squat/wide stance - 225 for 5x5 (haven't tried for a PR)
- Back squat/close stance - 315 for 5x10 (haven't tried for a PR)
- Back squat/wide stance - 335 for 5x5-10 (can rep 345 for 10 and PR is 365 so I know I can go higher)
I leg press for my quads (feet low and close together/knees as close to chest as my belly will allow lol) - 5x10 @ 810
Hack Slide - 3x10 @ 360

You got me beat Charlie, I'm 6'2" and 279 lbs, so don't feel bad.
Back squat 330 (5x5 max) usually I work lower in the 220-280 range trying to hit BW or a little over.
Deads I usually rep around 300 plusish, never tried for a 1rm but Insuspect this is quite a bit higher.
Bench I'm embarrassed, 145 5x5
Rows I'm around 180-190 5x5
Keeping moving that iron boys!
Got a trip planned with a college buddy tomorrow, should be a awesome workout.
