95 x 3

6lb sledgehammer hammer rotations, 10/10

11:30am - Complete

Notes - Well, the squats were really good today and I put everything into them.  Got the butt back, got deeper, drove knees out, just really tried to make these great.  They were heavy.  It's not easy with 315 on the back, but the reps got better each set, a good sign.  It did take something out of me for the other lifts.  I wasn't happy with the powerclean at all.  I might move it to Wed when I have a bit more in the tank, and chin on Friday.

Notes - Happy with this, though want to see the chins driving up a bit better.  Left elbow doesn't love the bench.  I think it would benefit from an adjustment either by the chiro or bodywork.
