I went really far off the program with this today, but I'm very glad I did. Set a new deadlift PR and it felt easy (but didn't look easy I guess haha). Cut a lot of everything else on account of that, but I'm feeling good right now.

Notes:
Today sucked, but not in a bad way. I ended up having to cut out some stuff from last week; Zerchers are more taxing on my upper back than I anticipated. That plus starting a bonafide cut and some regrettable conditioning decisions. I'm happy with everything though, I got the majority of the work done despite the recovery deficit.
