Looks like I'll have to move on to the next stage of this plan: after getting 5 reps at a weight, go for only 3 at the next weight, then 4, then 5, in a 3-week cycle, before advancing to the next weight.

It's always fun to get a heavy single. Haven't gone as heavy as 260 in a long time.

WAY too hard to get those singles. DL backoff sets were supposed to be for 8 reps. Oh well. New routine and all.

Heavy single still harder than I should have been. I can't believe I've gotten more than this for 5 reps.
