    Ha! Thanks JP. I left gas in the tank on all my lifts, especially squat and bench. A good sign for Nov.

    Though none of my meet lifts were 1RMs, I wasn't quite fully recovered today so I cut one set off squats and only cleaned very light. We'll see how I feel Friday.

    Squat
    405x5x4
    Notes: I could feel the underlying fatigue, but these were still pretty fast and solid. Decided not to be a hero, and skipped the 5th set. Need to recover.

    Press
    187.5x5x5
    Notes: No prob.

    Power Clean
    45x3, 135x3x2, 155x3, 175x3x2
    Notes: Felt a little stiff but better as I went on.

    Overall a good workout considering only had two days of rest since the meet.

    Really nothing special to see here, but I included it for the trainer stoically observing his client do 1/4 ROM butt blasters as I start my third set of squats.

    Can't beat those Equinox trainers! I wonder what "tier" he is?

    Good pseudo-intensity day today. Taking the set off my squats on Tuesday and only two days training total body this week really aided the recovery. Felt fresh and ready to hit it today, even though there was probably still a touch of underlying fatigue.

    Squat
    445x5
    Notes:
    Felt good, strong, no problem. First couple reps were really fast. As usual, I run out of gas on the 5th rep even when the first four are strong so it was a little slower, but overall a good heavy 5 rep set that was absolutely not a 5RM.

    Press
    213x5
    Notes:
    Still no idea why I missed this two weeks ago. Went up no problem today, like it should, even though I pressed the 5th rep away from me a bit. Also let my knees unlock, for no good reason, on a couple reps. Didn't get any help from them, just let them unlock and then re-locked them. Need to fix that.

    Deadlift
    515x5
    Notes:
    I'm no John Petrizzo, so didn't go for 17 reps on this, but was solid with 5. Good bar speed even on the 5th rep.

    Ready to go back to the full split routine next week. I hope my week off of bench helped the tendon/insertion thing settle down so I can get back to training the bench hard.
