Notes - On December 11 I pulled one DL single at 445, today I got 3 - that's a PR.  I was super pumped.  The first two singles were very good reps.  The third was pretty damn hard but I keep pushing/pulling and locked it out.  Exciting.  That was the highlight.  I also had a good top set squat at 445 x 5, better than last week.  Bench was solid, my heavy singles on the OHP didn't move.  I am regressing a bit here after a long run of a lot of progress, although my 5x5s have been pretty good.  It's been a couple of bad attempts at heavy singles in a row.  I've been doing these last and in a distracted state where I am having to multi task listening to work calls.  Not what I need for heavy singles.  I'll have to consider whether a programming adjustment is needed here.
