Paul Oneid – Sunday Squattin’

I am currently in a VERY long off-season.  Mentally and physically, I need a break.  I’ll have lots on the go the next few months business wise, not to mention that I will be getting married, so this is the perfect time to enjoy an off-season.  I am still working with Jon Byrd for my training and Tucker for my diet and feel stronger than ever.  My next meet will be the EPC (IPL) Finals December 9, 2017 up here in Montreal, QC. I’ll be lifting knee sleeves only at 220lbs.

This was the last session on the SSB this off-season and I will be switching to the squat bar after this deload.  Last off-season, my best set with the SSB was 500, and I knew I was good for plenty more.  I was not about to push the RPE past an 8, because that wasn’t the plan.  Look at me being all mature!  I could not be happier with where I am this off-season strength wise.  I feel like everything is coming together really well.  On the physique side, my bodyweight is a bit higher than I would have liked.  Currently sitting around 237lbs, but definitely the leanest I have been at this weight.  I have been eating very clean, only cheating once every 2, or 3 weeks, so I know things will come together.  I am comfortable with a 20lbs cut to make 220lbs and I am well within that range.  No stress there!

The result of my patience on this day was a 50lbs PR from last offseason, well within the RPE of the day.  Guess what?!  There is still 13 weeks of off-season left to get stronger!  I am really looking forward to seeing what Byrd has in store for me as we move forward.  I know after speaking with him that we will work up in the range of an opener at some point to see how we should adjust the numbers for meet prep, but I am leaving that in his hands.
