new pb!

Finally hit 140 kg squat tonight. It was controlled and down to parallel. In about 10 months my squat has improved from 6x80 to 1x140 kg so very happy with the progress. Although i had done some extra workouts between my last pb attempt and the start of the new program, im sure the smolov routine quickly improved my squat max. I didnt even do the total 3 weeks of the base mesocycle, only doing the last 2 and my squat increased 15 kg. Definitely will be using it again. Thinking of trying it for other lifts starting with deadlift, although might have to cut back on volume to allow my back to recover.
