Block 3 Week 2: Paused Squats. A surprising day!

My deadlift session this week, before this one was absolutely terrible. I went in feeling good, but as soon as I starting warming up, and ramping up the weights, my energy and strength was completely shot; probably just due to fatigue mounting up. So I played it safe, did 182.5 Kgs for a single, (was supposed to go for 202.5 Kgs) which even that felt grueling, and then did my back-offs with far less weight than intended, and finished the rest of the workout, to try and focus on active recovery, and digging myself out of this tired and weakened state. After a day of rest, and getting some good sleep in, I felt a tad better, but still low energy and had no desire to train. I thought it would be an absolute bust, and was not even planning to film anything, and take it easier. However, as I ramped up the weights, I could not believe how smooth and effortless it was feeling, so I figured what the hell, let's shoot for a little PR. I was originally going to do 162.5 Kgs as my Top Set, but I figured that would actually be too easy, so I made the decision to do 165. It was supposed to be RPE 7.5, but I think it ended up being a fair bit lower than that. Super easy! I was still feeling pretty tired and not on my A game with my benching right afterwards however, so I decided not to film, and to cut the volume and intensity a little bit, to play it a little safely, and help with recovery. Hopefully I'll be back on decent shape for next week, the final scheduled week of this Training Cycle.
