MegaTomb is a blackened thrash metal band. Metal Archives doesn't seem to know anything about them.
I didn't plan to try it today. I'm not even sure what made me decide to do it. It was one of those 'enough f@cking around' moments.
Squat
295 x 5
355 x 5
405 x 5
There it is, a major barrier broken. It wasn't even that hard, for some reason. You know I didn't plan this because I didn't even bring my camera! My hip, though... Ouch.
Oly Squat
315 x 8 x 2
Still doing oly instead of regular paused squats because they're easier on the hip.
...And then I limped out of the gym. I've found that more aggressive self myofascial release techniques are much more effective than a foam roller. I used the end of a barbell today, and it felt great.

Unfortunately, I have to begin cutting today, temporarily. I have a series of physicals in the next few weeks, and I really need to be under 200 lbs (I'm around 205 right now). I'm expecting to be cutting for 3 weeks. The next two weeks, I'm going to decrease the overall workload (since my calories will be down) by dropping a day and some assistance, but continue to lift heavy. I might work in some very light cardio once or twice per week, which is a very depressing thought.
The original plan was to deload after two more weeks. Let's see if I can make it.
