Notes - Great session today although this took a lot of time.  Long, very long warm up coming off of a 4-day long weekend traveling to and from Austin, TX for a wedding.  Didn't do much mobility work while I was there, though I did walk a decent amount.  Ate a lot of good food too.  Going to have to dial in my diet if I want to make progress getting down to 203 pounds.  Had a feeling from the travel etc. it would be a challenging day today, and it was.  I took a lot of extra rest with the 36kg presses, in between sets, which helped a lot.  6 sets and 18 total reps per arm with the 36kg has to be a PR for me, that is not messing around.  That's working at 90% of my max for decent volume.  Very pleased, just need to appreciate and ensure that on pressing days like this, I need the extra time between sets, it is absolutely key.   Also had a chiro visit today, and deep tissue massage scheduled for tomorrow which is well-timed.
