I don't know whether you're inspiring me to bench big or to give up entirely. But nice benching anyway.

Great work Wolf!
Congrats, Wolf!

Squat - high and low bar at each weight
45x10x2, 95x5, 135x5, 185x3, 225x3, 245x3, 265x3
Notes: Even though my back doesn't feel normal or 100% yet, I just had a feeling this might be better now. For the first time in 3 months, I was able to squat without making my back worse. It's still a little irritated at rest throughout most of the day, with some random brief periods where it feels fine, but squatting didn't negatively effect it in any way. That was a big breakthrough, and even though I stopped at 265 to play it safe, I was pretty excited.
245x3 sets on IG
Closed Grip Bench - (1ct) paused
135x6, 185x6, 235x6, 255x6, 275x6x2, 255x6x2
Notes: Easy.
Sumo DL
135x5, 225x3, 275x3, 315x3, 335x3, 365x3
Notes: Since my back still felt OK, I thought I'd try DLs, but didn't want to push it so did sumo to spare my low back some work after the squats. Sumo feels so awkward to me, but back held up fine. #eatbutt
