Lousy squat day! Had the power but the groove was gone... not pretty...
Next time I'll skip all the extra work on legs and just add another set of squats instead, even if I have to decrease the weight on that set.
The good stuff is that the OHP gives me an upper body pump from H***

Front Squat 30 sec RI
6x6 143,3 lbs +1x2 back squat with 3 stops. Bottom, between bottom and parallel and parallel.

Rehab:
Leg ext: 1x8 44 lbs top part, 2 sec hold at top on each rep.


Had no rubber band available. Went with the 3x 4x2 @BW. Cambered bar all reps to chest except for the last 2 on the last set.

Started of with a ladder, 10 sec rest between: 4,3,1(missed the chest) ,1!

Then with 15 sec rest between micro sets and slower eccentric than last time.
4x2
4x2
4x2

Like one set:
90° Race dive row 1x13 143,3 lbs
Mod Long pull 1x10 187,3 lbs
High Bench row 1x8 22 lbs DB:s
Short range Pull down to chest 1x10 88 lbs


DB/cable hybrid 10° incline 1 min RI
1x10 1x9 1x5 39,6/46,8 lbs

As one set:
Neck press 1x5 145,5 lbs
Gironda dip 1x5 BW

Deadlift:
3x10 297,6 lbs

OHP 104,7 lbs
1x9 1x9 1x8

Curls: 66 lbs
1x10 2x9

Tricep pushdown 121 lbs
2x12

Howorth toe raise 145,5 lbs
1x11 1x10 1x10 sloow reps

Rehab:
Gluteus medius leglift: 2x15

Felt worn when I started this WO... the exact same feeling I used to have a few hours after a soccer game as a teenager.
It turned out ok anyway and today I'll eat anything that's not guarded by rabid pitbulls!   ;D
Figured out what works for me regarding chest training. At least for now... as a finisher: one superset with neck press and V-bar dip.
I'll try to find something similar for back. I think that doing one superset with two movements that are fairly close to the "base movement" could be the answer.

Had to quit before calf work. Decided to destroy my arms and try
Dutch "Peaks In Weeks". Now I just have to eat enough.
Abs showing, lower back fat is slowly giving away and striations on my pecs! 
My hunch about the finisher on my back training seemed to be right. :)

Ok... as I said close to overtraining but this was fun. A PB in 20 rep squats. I've realized that my mind is playing trick s with me since doing 10 reps at 209,4 lbs is sooo much heavier to do than these 20 reps at 187,3 lbs....
Anyway, next week I'll be back to the basic routine again!

A little overtraining, but better for the funny of the long Game.  When you can not progress further or even can not train, you only have the pleasure of training.  That will never end.  Good Steff.

You're so right. If you loose the joy you won't be in the game for long. I need these short weeks of just having fun.
I do them once a month or 1 of 5 weeks.
