I have bench press envy.

Squats:
355x3
355x3
355x2+f +1

After my failure on the third set, i unloaded/reloaded and did another single to finish off the set. I'm going to go back to doing 2 set s at the working weight and a backoff set at -15 pounds.

275x8x2

75x10x3

Press:
142.5x3
142.5x1+f+f
142.5x3
142.5x2+f
142.5x1

I think I just lost focus on the second set. I was determined to get my reps in, though.

Incline:
145x8x2

CGBP:
175x8,7

Dips:
1x5
2x7

I was planning on 3x7. I might have gotten 7 on that first set if I'd rested any between CGBP and dips.

Squats:
280x3x5

2 minutes rest, beltless.

Deadlifts:
400xf
400xf
315x5
315x5

I'm starting to see a pattern here. For the last couple of months, it seems that do well one week but fail the next week. Well, except that two weeks ago, I did 380x3 and then 380x5 last week. I'm considering changing my deadlift programming to alternating 3's and 5's, where I do the same weight for those two weeks and then go up five pounds for the next set of 3's. So next week, I would do 385x3 and follow it with 385x5 the following week.

Chins:
10-minute EMOM
10x3

I not only have bench press envy. I have envy of your squat as well. Good work.
