JC (10/25&10/27)- 5/3/1

Just to reiterate, my training maxes are:
Squat: 333
Bench: 310
Deadlift: 365
Military press: 210

Bench Day (10/25)-

Bench press-
200x5
230x5
265x10 (Theoretical max: 353)

Rack lockouts-
365- 4x5
315x10
From now on will just build up to one heavy set of 5, and then do a back down set.

Tricep extensions

Very straightfoward workout. Tried to keep nonsense at a minimum.

Squat Day- (10/27)
Squat-
215x5
250x5
285x10 (Theoretical max: 380)
A couple of things- I have a video of the 285- I'd like for you guys to give me some critiques once I manage to upload it. Also, I've switched to low bar/parallel squats, which would be fine except my left shin would hurt as I squatted, even with light weight. I presume I may be pushing out my left knee too much (although it doesnt look like it), but maybe its something else. Perhaps with the video we can figure it out. Also felt I had at least 1 or 2 more reps in me, but I did not want to strain my left shin further.

More squat-
200 (60% of training max)- 2x10
190x10
The manual says 5x10, but its assistance anyways, so yeah.
