Notes -  A major success given the problems with the right wrist the last two days.  After acupuncture massage and a chiro adjustment, it definitely responded.  I was able to lock it in today, not get the wrist in extension, and no issues with the squat or bench.  I decided not to grind on the bench today, I did not want to mess with the wrist, so I just stopped before getting to any potentially grinding rep.  I was fine with the overall effort.  In the circumstances this was an appropriate adjustment.
