Hook grip still rather painful, but I think my form was better than last week. On the first rep of the down set I dislodged my knee sleeve on the eccentric phase of the first rep, which was a bit of a distraction.

Tougher than before, but no real difficulty. Increase to 87.5 kg next time, but may need to drop to 1.25 kg jumps soon. Nobody was around to give me a hand-off, but I managed my own OK by bridging slightly.

85 kg: 2 X 5
Light day. Bar position felt better again - I just dived under the bar without trying to consciously put it in a particular place.
Chins
BW: {2,2,3} X 10 = 70
Third session of high-rep chins. Same rep scheme as last time because I was a bit fatigued from all the previous lifting.
Pain / injury update
Elbows a bit worse, but that's OK while I'm going through the high-rep chin protocol.
Left wrist sore - I wore wraps for DL & bench today.
Pretty good otherwise.
