Fucking terrible session last night; not only sleep deprived, but likely rotated in the SI joint and painful tightness in (i think) the tibialis anterior on the right side. And I've been on a calorie deficit. All this translated to barely putting up 355 for a back squat single and then failing miserably on 375. It was so demoralizing and I felt like such shit that I just packed up and left. Going back in today, better rested; hopefully won't have another pathetic session.

I'm pretty sure my intake is fine. At least my body burned around ~4000kcal per day constantly during the last two years, it wouldn't make sense that it has dropped all of a sudden or that I miscalculated that badly. And I'm simply not made out for hard cuts like ~2500kcal/day for longer periods of time. If in two weeks time my weight is the same it is probably time to make some changes.

I haven't done any lifting really, but I've started doing jump rope, if only for the fact that I don't do much cardio and wanted to improve my endurance without doing running. Kind of enjoy it too, especially since it's nice out.

It went significantly better, but I can definitely still feel the caloric deficit. Seems like everyone here who's ever posted about being on a cut has said something along the lines of "Training on a cut feels like shit" but wow, understanding it first-hand is eye-opening.
Back squats: Singles @ 365 / 375 / 380x ; 2 sets of 3 @ 335 Bench press: 5 / 5 / 4 @ 225 Deadlift: 2 sets of 5 @ 385 Behind-the-neck push press: 3 sets of 5 @ 155

I ve got some questions for you:
1. No offense but that benchpress seems very weak (if it is in pounds) compared to your other results you have in lifting. Those weightliftingweights are really impressive. Or was it just a "light" session?
2. Everytime i see olypmpic lifters "bounce" a massive amount of weight on their wrists (like they are made out of jelly wtf) it makes me cringe (and angry). Isnt that a big strain on your knees/wirsts if you "bounce" thoses weights around or explosivly get them over your head?!
Anyway really impressive.

GOALS UPDATE
1 month update on 5x5 SL program Listed in this format: starting-> current-> (original 6 month goal)
Bodyweight: 60kg-> 62kg-> (65kg)
Squat: 65kg-> 80kg-> (85kg) Deadlift: 90kg-> 100kg-> (125kg) My first post I had a different starting number listed, but that was doing 5x5 instead of the 1x5 that is recommended by the program so now the weight is changed to reflect that Bench Press: 50kg-> 62.5kg-> (65kg) Press: 35kg-> 37.5kg-> (45kg) Barbell Rows: 40kg-> 45kg-> (55kg)
Well I guess my original goals weren't ambitious enough, but also I must say I'm surprised by the quick results I'm getting so far. I guess I'll have to reevaluate once I reach those. I'm a little disappointed my OHP hasn't increased more, but I think it was due to bad form (arching my back too much) the first few sessions. The other thing is that my diet hasn't been ideal, but I have been eating more lean meats and cutting down on alcohol so that's good.

Everyone has problems with OHP, it went up for me in small runs, as in, I would get stuck, then progress linearly for a while.
Just keep at it, and good stuff!
