week one, day one, max effort lower body:

Felt good to be lifting heavy again. Hit a new PR at 355 squat. I was surprised that I was even able to meet my last lift after not lifting heavy for months. The last heavy squat I did was June 8th at 295. I had to back off a bit on the lower-back lifts since I was pretty beat up after the set of squats.

squat: 135×6, 185×5, 225×3, 275×2, 315×1, 355×1
stiff-leg deadlift: 95×8 (three sets)
good mornings: 65×8 (three sets)
hanging leg raise: x8 (four sets)
leg press: 170×15, 210×12 (two sets)
close pulldown: 9×10, 11×10 (two sets)
