Notes - On December 18 I pulled one DL single at 450, today I got 2 - that's a PR.  It was certainly hard.  It's been a bit up and down the last 6/7 weeks with the holiday, dealing with the left QL issue, and a hell of a lot of work.  With that said, doubling my PR feels pretty good, I think there has been progress and I am getting a little better each week at pulling heavier weights. Squat top set of 450 was ok, not super pleased with depth, doing two triples instead of a 5 might be a better option here.  OHP was just ok, that lift hasn't been feeling that strong lately.  Bench was good, I got three very solid singles at 310 to finish this week out.
