    Notes: Went straight to 135 for the first time since tweak. I still feel a little tiny something there but it's gotten much better and I'm ready to start doing some things again. So working back up and dropping reps. 305x6x2 is light, but probably still considered work at this point and not just a warm-up.

    Wanted to row but all the ergs were used for crossfit class. I'll have walked about 8 miles today when all is said and done so even though it's not the same, I feel a little less bad about missing the intervals.

    Press: 4" belt+wraps

    Bench Rehab
    45x15, 135x10, 185x10, 225x8, 275x6, 295x5, 315x5x2!!!, 225x11
    Notes: Back at 3 plates baby! Pec doesn't feel 100% as if nothing ever happened, but I barely feel or notice is when benching. This is probably as good as it'll get, considering this has bugged me on and off since 2015 or so.

    Deadlift: 2" blocks
    135x5, 225x5, 275x5
    Ring Rows
    BWx8x3
    Notes: Thing 1 - finally have a consistent streak of training, started adding back in some accessory work (i.e. ring rows) for the first time since I left for Texas three weeks ago. Thing 2 - back is FINALLY uncranked enough to do some pulls, kept it light as it's still not back to normal but was nice doing this.

    C2 Erg
    45/75 x8 at 1:53-1:55x7, last one at 1:50 pace, then a single 325m at 2:00 pace. Easy but just getting back into the groove and have been walking a ton (7,7,6,6 miles so far this week).

    Press
    255x1 @7, 275x1 @9 - got forward, both with belt+wraps.
    225x3,3,5 @9 - belt only
    Notes: 255 really popped so went to 275 and got a little forward on me. Oh whale. Still a solid press workout.

    Deadlift
    135x5, 225x5, 315x5 - DOH
    405x5, 455x5 - mixed, belt for 455
    Notes: First day DLs and back really felt OK since my trip, so went up to 455 and did a pretty easy set of 5. Good to be back here.

    Press: 4" Belt, wraps for 215s
    195x5, 215x5x2, 195x5
    Notes: A little harder than expected but no issues.

    Block Pulls: 4" block - 4" belt
    365x5x3
    Notes: Back was cranky again so raised it up a bit. Pretty easy but don't think more weight, or pulls from the floor, were in the cards today. This was just right.

    Bench Press: Wraps
    315x5, 335x5, 315x5
    Notes: Right wrist was unhappy today for some reason so put on the wraps. These all moved fast and pec felt good today.

    Deadlift
    495x1 @6, 425x3x3 @6
    KB 1-A Press
    24kg x6, 32x6x6
    Notes: DL moved well but left side of lower back felt pretty cranky so kept it lighter than bar speed alone would've dictated. Still pretty cranky a couple hours later.

    495 and 425 DLs on IG

    Pullups
    BWx3x4
    Notes: First pullups in months - pec felt ok!

    C2 Erg
    20/60 x8 @ ~1:35. Too easy, should've pushed harder.

    Press: 4" belt + wraps
    235x2x3 @7.5

    Bench Press
    135x10, 185x10, 235x10, 255x10, 275x10
    Notes: Had to put these together for time reasons. Went ok. Left lower back still very cranky but moved ok. Bench was fine, ezpz.

    starting strength coach development program
    Lunch hour training at the seminar today.

    Bench: no belt or wraps
    135x10, 185x8, 225x5, 275x5, 315x5, 345x5x2, 315x5
    Notes: Felt good, moved good. Nice to be back here again.

    Barbell Rows for the Barbell Bros
    135x5, 225x5, 275x5, 295x5x2

    DB 1-Arm Press
    48x8, 64x8, 76x8, 84x8, 92x8
    Lat Pulldown (prone)
    160x5, 170x5x3
    Notes: DBs were surprisingly easy, wanted to keep going up but was out of time. I don't remember doing these in about 8 years, aside from last week when I did some sets at 70. 65s were hard back last time I remember doing them. I've done a bunch of workouts with KB 1 Arm presses, but not on a very regular basis for long or training them, specifically, and not too much recently. So having 92x8 be not hard at all was pleasantly surprising.
