20 mins, 5.9 miles Another +1/10th of a mile, started at 5.1 miles and have gone up 0.1 each ride. Hardest I've worked yet, felt good though. I'm thinking once I hit 6 miles I'll make that my target distance and try to PR the time it takes to hit 6 miles because I don't feel like riding longer than 20 minutes.

Deadlift
305x6x4 Moved fine, 24th rep was hard due to fatigue. About 5-6 min rests between sets. I'll try to keep the 10 lb increase train rolling

6 miles, 19:57 Now that I've hit a lifetime 20 minute PR and my goal distance, I'm gonna see if I can shave a few seconds off each ride. Arbitrary goal of eventually hitting it in 18 minutes = 3 minute/miles

So I'm thinking because my doubles press day has been noticeably harder than everything else that I need more frequent exposure to heavy pressing than once every 3 weeks. So instead of doing 8's today with 3x3 strict backoff I reversed them. Plan is to still do 5x3 press on 5's day but switch backoff from 3x4 strict press to 3x3 push press; on 2's day I'll keep doubles rolling as long as I can then roll with 5-7 singles across and change the backoff that day from push presses to 8x3 strict press backoff. So my press cycle will look like
