Notes -  This was a good day.  Strength felt there, a lot, lot was in the tank even after jumping up from 195 on the squat and 205 on the DL on Monday.  This is a good sign.  I will probably add 20 lbs to the bar the next workout, and keep doing that until I feel like it stalls.  Maybe can do that for 3 workouts I suspect and that will get me back pretty close to where I was, and then just try and keep going on the NLP with 5 lb jumps.  We'll see.  I've made a decision to work in OHP as well, not sure where I will start that lift.  I'd love to start it with a plate on each side but from Monday that would be probably tough to do for 5 x 3 sets.  I'll think about it.  Depends on how things go tomorrow as that will be the main lift I practice.   Going to use a belt this time as well and see if that helps.  I don't think I am going to bench.  Haven't decided yet.
