That’s exactly what it was. Tommy and his Dad made me do it!

I had to withdraw from Worlds due to that glute injury I sustained a while back. I’m not as bummed as one might suspect, as it certainly comes with the territory. My aspirations are already focused on Nationals in October.

Damn Eric.  But like you said, part of the game.

Does this mean you don't have to cut weight now?

I know the feeling.  Weighed in at a svelte 283 for NAGS this morning.

I had to cut that set short. Left side of lower back not feeling good at all. Whatever that seemingly minor pull in my hamstring or glute or wherever it was has sent my squats and deadlifts into a downward spiral.

Dang! Heal up. Maybe some box squats and cut a bit of depth for a few weeks.

Thank you, Jason. I’ve come up with a whole new routine I’m implementing on Friday: two weeks of three sets of 9s. Then two weeks of 5s. Finally three weeks of 3s. Then at least a couple weeks of recovery with very light high rep, low volume stuff. In general I’m dropping intensity and increasing volume. On the second weeks of 3s I may push the intensity closer to a 99% effort. I’m also reducing frequency: one week I do deadlifts and high bar squats on same day. Following week is squats and shrugs.  I’ll continue with weighted chins every week. Will continue benching weekly playing each workout by ear. So I’ll only be lifting twice a week and squatting and deadlifting every two weeks. I’m either gonna feel fresh or undertrained. 😆 The reasoning, in part, is my squat and deadlift form is such that the overlapping muscles being hit isn’t allowing enough recovery currently, training both lifts weekly. As always I’ll be adjusting and modifying as I go.
