9:15am - Complete
Notes - A bit of a challenge today. Squats went well, I think this was a good weight to jump back in at, through certainly the accumulation of the 5x5 got to me a bit, and I felt the fatigue on the bench and the deadlift. Hence, the 5th rep on the 3rd set of bench was a grind, and after that it was difficult to keep my breath and stay tight. I didn't want to fail a rep so I didn't push hard after that, just did a couple of triples and then two doubles to hit all the reps. I may have gone a little too heavy at 262.5. DL, the reps were fine, the top set at 335 was a little heavier than I would have expected, I think I was feeling the fatigue from the squats. All in all, a good day jumping back in. I have to train tomorrow not Wed due to a family trip planned, and then intensity on Friday. So a bit of a different training week but its all good.
