Notes -  Happy with this training session, though I did not get the reps on the bench.  I misloaded the bar at 260, and knowing that it was really tough to get the reps with 255 on Friday, this was a predictable outcome.  Used a lot of energy in the first set as well with a bad liftoff which I had to correct.  All in all, this was ok, I will have to think about the best way to approach the best bench session.  The lift is feeling strong and I like my progress overall.  This is another PR and I never held 260 in the hands before on the bench, so this is good.  Most pleased today with deeper squats, and the DL did not feel heavy, which is great.  I'm planning on going up to 365 on the DL next week if things keep progressing at this pace.
