Notes - A very good training day.  Good squats sets.  Maintaining better depth.  It was definitely hard.  I am inching up to doing a 5 x 5 at 405, which is cool to consider.  Bench was strong, I didn't rest quite enough before the last set, I wish I would have as I would have gotten all 5 reps.  DL were very fast, this is encouraging.  Yes it is lighter, but I am making some improvements here and I think it will carry over when the bar gets heavier.
