Sunday
Suspected I wouldn't get a decent spot so did reps instead. Brutal
Hatfield Squats
Plan was either 1-3 x 1 x 445kg/979lbs then 3 x 3 x 400kg/880lbs or, as I ended up doing, 2 x 6 x 400kg/880lbs. PB. No spot
I've never done two works sets x 6 at this weight. Tiny right knee tweak but it did not affect squats
Lying Leg Curls
8p x 8, stack x 7 r/p
s/s
Leg Extensions
1/2 stack x 12, stack x 12. Saved right knee from top set

Took my time getting started. Got stuff to do so need to be more prompt for the next few weeks
Hatfield Squat
F**ked up forgetting my under support belt. That took time sorting using a spare gym belt

Leg Press
to 635kg/1397lbs x 8 (other sets were 12). No wraps

Stronger, doing reps and set PBs yet tough as f**k
Hatfield Squat
