Notes - A very good day.  Top set on squats, very solid.  I felt some pretty good pop today on the squats, bar placement is so much better, it is staying in place and this is giving me a lot more confidence.  Went right into heavy DL, I got the 450 single, it was a max effort but once it was past the knees, a really strong lock-out at the top.  Great stuff. At some point I am going to have to start working that start off the floor, that's what's really difficult for me. OHP, got one set of 4 at 195, maybe I had the 5th rep, maybe I should have gone for it but I racked it.  Finished with a double at 195.  Bench, did 3 top singles at 307.5, honestly, these were heavy for sure, but my last single was my best rep.
