I think this is the 4th time I've been up to 360+ and some damn thing or another always happened to leave me at a max of 365. But not this time.

Congrats. Nice use of the micro-plates.

Was it supposed to be "x5?"

Yes, my idiot typist (me) apparently can't type. But thanks!

And hey, I was able to go back and fix it.

Had an unexpected sharp pain in the right shoulder on the first empty bar warmup set. Wtf? Decided to keep going to see if it would work itself out, and it was gone by the first work set. But it sure was weird.

This is why we can't have things like a nice squat. As I approached the hole in that last rep I felt a pop and a sharp pain in the left adductor origin area where it's been injured before. It had been a little painful on and off the past couple weeks. All I could see on video was that I descended a little faster than usual.

Yes, it has come to this. On the upside, these only made the adductor tendon hurt at about a 2.

Adopted a more toes-forward stance to keep pressure off the stupid adductor tendon. Well, at least that worked out ok.

I guess it's improving by doing something so today I added the bar. Only hurt a little the first few reps.

These are getting pretty damn hard. I always feel like my arms will fall off by the time I get to the end of this session.

Huh, looked kinda fatter in the mirror. Maybe that's just "my look" these dark days.
