Notes - Writing this on Monday evening after a challenging several days.  On my last set of heavy squats, on reps 3, 4, 5 I changed the rep speed out of the hole, trying to "explode."  I have no idea why I decided this was a good idea. I mean the weight was fucking heavy, so I was probably scared.  I think changing the speed, with that much weight, was a stupid fucking move and my hip flexors, psoas, glute medius, piriformis have all been fucked, particularly on my L hip.  Chalk it up to another learning experience.  It's not fun to have these with heavy weights, but it is part of a process. I am sure I should get a damn coach.  It was cool to get another PR, I wish I could celebrate it more.  I think I should take weight off the bar and get deeper frankly.  I didn't rest enough between OHP sets, and my legs felt fucked, and I missed on the last set.  At that point I didn't even care because there were extenuating circumstances.  I will take this weight again this week and see how it goes.  Chins and dips were good, I am enjoying doing that accessory work.  I need more tricep power in the press and bench, the dips should help.
