1/24 – Deadlift – ME

Definitely could not muster the deadlift mindset today with being cautious about my pec. Easy deads, but didn’t really put effort out.

1/23 – Bench – ME

Close-grip bench feeling pretty strong and comfortable. 310/315 were pretty easy. Thinking at least 20lbs more left in the tank. Incline DB  bench felt fast and easy, but I felt a bit of a tug in the right pec again on the last set (similar to what I had during DE work back in December) so I called it good then.

1/17 – Squat – ME

First time doing wide-stance squats heavy since Feb 2019, and first time having 500+ on my back since last Feb. All things considered, squats felt really solid, and I’m damn pleased with how 495/515 moved.

Incline bench was feeling really solid today, as was flat db bench. Everything was pretty easy and definitely had more in the tank. No elbow issues at all on pressing but still holding back a bit.
