Notes - A very good day. Squats went well, last work set the best, got my knees out much better, got deeper.  Strong, though same as when I ran this up last time, right around 350 it definitely starts to feel heavy.  I feel more confident now though and technique is better.  A PR on the OHP, I have never pressed 162.5, and got it for 5 sets of 3.  That is good.  The last rep was a grinder, but I got it.  Adding in this additional "light" DL day has been a good move.  This allows me to drill on the technique.  I pulled the work set in just under one minute, which is good for me.  I am continuing to work on going faster through each rep, I just need the practice so it becomes more automatic for me.
