3rd Pull Strength Cycle Week 4 Review

This was the unloading week of this cycle.  At the start of the week I felt a little pinch in my back so I altered the week a little bit.  I was originally only suppose to work up to 3RM or 5RM as normal and ditch the drop sets. However, with the sudden pinch I just decided to do a heavy (non maximal) single on certain movements.  This way I was still lifting heavy but not taxing myself too much.  For the most part the numbers I was hitting were what I would normally hit for about a 2RM or 3RM without pushing too hard.  I did cut out some of the accessory lifts and just focused on technique a little bit more with the classic lifts.  My body weight has finally come back down to my weight class as well.  This is important for me because my goal is to stay at this weight and get stronger in the up coming strength cycle.
