Notes - A good session for squats and DLs, not good for bench.  What a terrible week for bench.  While I would call this better than Monday, it still wasn't great.  Breathing shitty, not good enough leg drive though I did get that going better in the last set, and almost got the 5th rep.  Leah got me a 25lb weighted vest for a gift, which I used for my walk with the dog yesterday morning.  Probably doesn't help with upper body fatigue.  I think I am looking at 5 sets of 3 on bench - it's probably time.  I am stalling here even regressing a bit since I was able to hit 3 sets 5 at 260 before having the baby.
