    Another artist I wish I would have discovered in a bargain bin in the mid-80's when I was spending NDSL $ on LP's and stereo equipment.

    Listen and see if you agree some of the solo lines in Overnight Bag were used by Santana in Smooth.

    The way warm-ups felt, surprised I completed any singles. Hoped for 4 to 5 with a back off triple.

    No prob. Thought about +5, instead of +2.5. Should have. We'll see if I possess the testosterone to go +5 next Intensity day.

    Drove across the big muddy on Friday and picked up used bar to use for pressing in the stables. Also picked up a pair of 25's & 5's. Won't have to shuttle 25's between the stables and the dungeon for awhile. If you recall, the bar I had been using was a cheap, 33lb, hex-nut bar from a big box sporting goods store.

    The "new" bar is 32mm with no center knurl. It is not a split sleeve. Knurling seems fairly passive. Knurl is mostly worn outside the rings to the sleeves. Seems in excellent shape with only some surface rust where chalk was left in the knurl. Gave it a quick brushing and sprayed/wiped it down with WD-40.

    Bar weighs 43.6lbs as opposed to the standard 44.0lbs. I will now be joining the club and using standard weight nomenclature for the press.

    With the old bar, schedule was 148x5x5. The "150" with the new bar is actually 148.6. Essentially, this WO followed the scheduled 2.5lb jump, not the 5lb it appears from the listed weights.

    No physical, or mental mojo today. Should have been 150x5x5.

    I think the wider diameter shaft changed my grip some as I seem to have discovered a new section of my deltoids.

    Well, I had the mental testosterone to attempt +5. Bad unrack messed with confidence and form. Don't remember much about R's3&4... That means I had NO focus on form.
