    Squat 450x5, 385x5x2
    Press 180x5x5

    I tried carrying my same squat vol weight over from my last TM. That was a mistake. Going to reset to 70% or 385x5x5

    Thursday 7/11/19
    Bench 315x1, 330x1
    Pin press at chin (pin 6) 200x5
    Split Snatch 155x2x3, 135x2x2

    Still got that elbow shit going on from Monday, just couldn't bench heavy. It's feeling better than it did, though.
    Improving on split snatch. Focusing on splitting down to the same height seems to help. It's starting to feel a lot quicker.

    Monday 7/15/19
    Press 230x3x2
    Bench 270x5x3, 250x5x2
    Chins BWx9,8,5

    A productive day at the tit farm.

    Presses: YouTube
    Knees are looking good. I usually struggle with keeping then straight so this is nice to see. Only thing I see in this is that I could be tighter from the waist up.

    Thursday 7/18/19
    Bench 330x3
    Pin press at chin (pin 6) 205x5
    Split snatch 160x2,1 135x3x3

    Bench: YouTube

    Going to move on to bench doubles next week 335x2x3 and scale back volume day weight to 70%.

    Split Snatch form check:
    -I need to start hips lower
    -I'm arm pulling to some degree. I can see it in the vid and I can feel a slight strain on the inside of both elbows. Keep elbows out and tight.
    -Need to shrug more and get under it faster, and split down to the same depth. These were a bit higher than usual.

    Squat 505x2,3
    Press 160x3x10 (dynamic effort)
    DL 570x3

    Ran out of time. Going to do cleans tomorrow for a form check, then vol DLs.

    Always chalk up before heavy squats. Messed up my first set because the bar started to slip.

    Monday 7/22/19
    Press 235x3x2
    Bench 250x5x5

    Those pin presses are paying off. I've added 20 lbs now to my weak point in the pin press 5RM. My sticking point in the press feels a lot easier.
    Moving on to press doubles next week 240x2x3.
