You're gonna kill it, man. You healthy?
Volume sucks more, but what really sucks is just grinding out sets @9.5. I tried to stay away from that this cycle, in fact I haven't touched more than 405 on squat in 2 months and was able to toss on another 65lbs for a sub max single, with another 30lbs expected on game day.

13 days out. Woke up fat. 254.6lbs. I knew I had to lift today.
I worked up to my planned second attempts, everything went well, deadlift was a little heavy.
Squat: 45x5x2, 135x5, 225x4, 315x3, 405x1, 440x1, 470x1, 440x2x2
Bench: 45x10, 135x5, 185x3, 225x2, 265x1, 295x1, 305x1, 295x2x2
Deadlift: 225x3, 315x3, 405x1, 495x1, 585x1, 615x1
Deadlifts were rushed, and my wife had to leave and I had the baby running around nearby for 615. It was distracting, and I hope that is why it felt heavier.
You're gonna kill it, man. You healthy?
WE READY!!!
