    SQ: 220x5x3

    Rack pull: 340x5. I used wrist straps on the work set. But I taped my thumbs as usual and did hook grip for almost all of my warmup sets, including the last one.

    P 2.0: 109x1x5. I did all the singles with only enough rest in between to take off my belt and wraps, sit down, log the rep, sip some water, and then do the next rep.

    Epiphany: on the last single, I took a deep breath when I unracked the bar, held it, took one step back, and went right into the Press. The bar flew up, and I didn't feel the oxygen debt I thought I would.

    CGBP: 174x5, 161x5x2

    Chins: BWx5, 5 (chest to bar). When I came home from the gym, there was a full barbecue in effect: NY strip steaks, Italian sausage, rice, salad, scotch, wine, and beer. I was too distracted to progress compared to last week, or do a third set.

    Nice way to fuel the adaptation process.

    Yeah, I'm not going to set any bad precedents, by making her wait to fire up some steak, while I do one more set of weak sauce chins in the garage.

    SQ: 225x5, 205x5x2.

    P 1.5: 100x5, 4, 3, 3, 3. My goal continues to be just accumulating 18 total reps of volume.
    P 1.0: 60x8

    Hanging from chin bar: I only did this once before my warmup sets, but I did it two more times after my Press workout was done.
    PVC stretch: I only did this once before, and twice after.

    P 1.5: 101x5. It's all I had time for; I drove over 4 hours straight from an overnight stay in Nashville, to the gym.
    P 1.0: 65x8

    Hanging from chin bar: Niki Sims latest article on LP mentioned doing this for 3 sets of 10 seconds to help your Press lockout. I had been doing this for 30 seconds a set, so I cut it to 10.
    PVC stretch: 2x5

    SQ: 235x4

    P 2.0: 111x1x5. The third single stopped above my forehead before I locked it out. Therefore I took about 5 minutes rest before I did the fourth and fifth singles.

    Rack pull: 345x5
