Thursday:

Squats
up to
335X1 awful form, knees caved in on the way up
355X0

messed around with some zerchers and box squats

So obviously disappointing. I will switch some stuff around, and start doing some strict box squats, focusing on keeping a strong arch in the back and keeping knees out. I also think one of my problems is that my squats were becoming too wide, so I will narrow them down. I am also going to purchase some oly shoes soon which should be kind of exciting, lol. They will also help my overhead squats I'm sure.

Saturday:

Push Press Ladder
up to
195X1, 2, 3
195X1, 2, 3
195X1, 2, 3

Muscle Snatch
up to
125X3
125X3
125X3

Incline DB Presses
40's X12
40's X12
40's X12
40's X12

Incline DB Flies
25's X5
25's X5
25's X5
25's X5
25's X5

Ab Roller
-did some slow eccentrics/static holds
-a couple sets from the knees

New routine idea:

Push Press ladder
Muscle snatch
other pressing stuff
abs

Sumo deadlifts switched with clean pulls each week
Romanian Deadlifts
Barbell rows

Overhead squats
Conventional back squats
Box Squats
abs

Any imput appreciated.

Clean Pulls
up to
225X3
225X3
225X3

These feel a little off when I shrug it up towards the top. Any tips?

Babell Rows (thumbless)
135X5
185X3
225X3
240X3
260X3 no straps this time
205X3

I wasn't sure about where my back angle was so I snapped a photograph of myself relative to where I believe my head angle was at during the lockout of the reps with 260, and um, as far as I can tell or predict I'm assuming my torso was a little bit under 45 degrees relative to the ground, so.. good..lol

One Arm Barbell Snatch
95X1, 1
105X1, 1
115X1
120X1
125X0
125X0

Pretty cool - I think with some more practice I should have 125.

Burpees
20

Finally put together a sandbag, very cool stuff! Here is what I roughly did:

Sandbag shouldering
100X10
130X8
150X6
150X2 I believe

Sanbag shoulder and walk
150 for 4-6 sets

This was about 40-50 paces for set so not much but my obliques are toast.

Doing 20 reps straight would be pretty awesome I think so I'll shoot for that, and then maybe a 50/20 scheme with the same weight.

Sunday:

Overhead Squats
up to
180X5
190X5
135X10

Awesome, new 3 rep PR on these. Form was very solid and deep, the new oly shoes help a ton!

Box Squats
135X3
145X3
185X3

Form felt solid and did a good job on keeping my knees out and not folding down onto the box/rocking back.

Back Squats
225X3
225X3
225X3

Just testing these out. Reps were very snappy. I also brought my stance in quite a bit. I will stick with this as it feels most natural/comfortable rather than widening my squat stance out.

Ab wheel rollouts
-did some stuff from the knees then attempted a standing rollout. Got through about 3/5-4/5 of the full ROM so they are definitely progressing, although I still think I have a ways to go before I can do them full ROM style like Ross.

Congrats on the OHS PR!

They can be hard to come by.....

Big PR, dude.
