BW: 100.8kg - eating paleo-ish this month to trim a bit of fat

Squat - 20kg 2x10, 60kgx5, 80kgx5, 100kgx5, 120kgx5, 137.5kgx5 - No pain, felt strong, used 4th hole on belt for the last set. Have been using the 3rd hole for quite some time.

BW: 100.8kg

Bench press - 20kg 1x10, 60kg 1x5, 80kg 1x3, 100kg 1x1, 112.5kg 1x1, 122.5kg 1x4@10 (PR), 112.5kg 2x5@9,9.5 - the 122.5kg was 4.5, almost locked it out, spotter touched the bar on the 5th rep, not sure I'd have had it on my own, it was definitely a grinder.
Chins - BWx2, 10kgx1, 20kg 4,5,4 - tried a different plate setup for the chin-dip belt on the first top set and the weight started to swing like a pendulum, putting me off, probably would have had the 5 in the old configuration. I've switched to that from the second set.
LTE - 48kg 11,10,8

Bench press - 122.5kg 1x4@10 (PR),

Nice Bench PR! And you might have had 1 more if spotter didn't mess with it. Great job.

Thanks!

The end of a PR run?

Press - 20kg 1x10, 40kg 1x5, 50kg 1x5, 60kg 1x3, 70kg 1x1, 80kg 1x1, 87.5kg 1x3@10 (PR), 80kg 2x5@9.5 - felt weak, was aiming for 5 reps.

I didn't sleep too well because of allergies, didn't feel recovered from Monday's session. I think I need to back-off a little bit, and gain momentum again.

Dips - 3x15 - only last sets last 2 reps were a bit hard, otherwise alright.

06/23

Press - 20kg 1x10, 40kg 1x5, 50kg 1x5, 60kg 1x3, 70kg 1x1, 80kg 4x5@9 (PR) - these were ok, all reps press 2.0
Bench press - 60kg 1x5, 80kg 1x3, 100kg 1x1, 105kg 3x8 - spotter was "finger-shadowing" the bar from like the 3rd rep of the first set, so I note no RPEs down. Next time I come to this, I'll repeat the weight.
LTE - 38kg 3x12

Still making lots of press and bench pr's! Great job. You mentioned that you're doing press 2.0 now. Do you find 2.0 "better" in the sense that you can move bigger weights than you could with 1.0, or are the recent pr's more likely due to programming and just getting stronger in general?
