    Squat w/ wraps @ 415 lbs-3 PR RPE 9.5. I did a poor job wrapping knees so it was more like a wrapless squat- I need more practice with the wraps.
    Squat w/ wraps @ 390 lbs- 3,3. RPE 9. By the 2nd set my wrapping technique was getting better.

    Bench @ 315 lbs-4 PR. (actually a 10 lb pr for 4 reps). RPE 9. I'm clearly making progress on bench with this programming.
    Bench @ 300 lbs- 4,4. RPE 9.

    I've been sick with a bad cold these last few days, not sleeping and feeling a bit woozy. I still don't feel great but I do feel well enough to lift.

    I'm still fighting a bad cold and took a few days off, mostly due to coughing. Nothing like having a coughing fit w/ 400 lbs on your back.

    Squat @ 410 lbs-3. RPE 9. Wrapless PR.
    Squat @ 370 lbs- 3,3,3 RPE 8-8.5. This was a misload as I was supposed to be doing 390. I couldn't understand why it felt so easy until I unloaded the bar.

    Bench (tough and go) @ 295 lbs-7. RPE 9-9.5
    Bench @ 280 lbs-7. RPE 9

    Close grip bench @ 265 lbs-5. RPE 8-8.5. Repeats @ 265- 5,5. RPE 9.
