    Everything felt good today, which was nice. Squats had been feeling kind of heavy for a few weeks.

    Week 1 day 2 of peaking.

    Deadlift with belt: 445x1x1@8; 415x4x1@9; 385x4x2. Five minutes rest.

    Close-grip bench: 225x1x1@? 220x3x1@10; 197.5x3x3. Five minutes rest. The single went up fast so I thought it felt like an 8. For the second set I should have loaded the bar with 215 but mistakenly loaded 220 for a triple, which was definitely an RPE 10. I might dial the top set back to 220 next week.

    Squat, no belt: 255x6x1@7; 265x6x3@8. Five minutes rest.

    Things look to be in a good place.

    How do you feel about the upcoming meet?

    I feel pretty good, and I'm happy with my progress, especially considering that I've been following a beginner template for the last three months or so, and not a strength-focused program. I'm hoping each of my lifts will be at least 10 pounds more than the numbers I posted at the December meet.
