    Actually, no. I've seen a "Frankenstein" grip, with palms down. I'll give the thumbs up version a shot. Guess I haven't tried all the grip options after all. Thanks.

    2/9/18:

    Squat: 395x3, 355x3x2
    Bench: 260x3, 245x3x3
    Deadlift: 435x6

    Bench was the only grinder. Everything else moved well. Bench is stubborn.

    2/12/18:

    Squat: 375x5, 355x5x2
    Bench: 235x6, 225x6x2

    Minimalist, but pretty heavy. Final reps were slightly grindy across the board. Happy with this.

    Ha, I don't know about awesome, but I'm at least punching the clock.

    2/16/18:

    Squat: 405x2*, 365x3x2
    Bench: 265x2, 245x3x3
    Deadlift: 455x5 (In newly lowered PPII's. Cobbler did a pretty good job)

    *I think that's a PR. If not, it's a PR to have done it with a rep in the tank.

    Not sure if I'm getting sick or weak or what's up. Gravity dial was on 11 tonight. Everything heavy.

    Squat: 375x3
    Press: 185x1x2, 205xFAILx2
    Bench: 250x3, 235x3

    If things are less awful Friday, I plan to go after some PR's.

    It wasn't just you; I think a neutron star is passing in the vicinity of this sector.
