Notes: Good day. Felt strong, everything moved fast. Paused bench really helped dial in leg drive and all that. Floor press is weird, but I'll get used to it.

Bent Row: 175 x 5 x 10
Good Morning: 275 x 5 x 6

Notes: This was absolutely brutal. I was still sore to the point of hobbling from squatting, and it didn't get better once I got warm. By then it was too late to turn back though. I was almost overwhelmed with relief when I finished. Now for a ton of food and rest.

Notes: Brutal. Glad this is the last squat day of the base phase. My adductors and quads are absolutely fried. I feel like this is leading up to some big things once I start intensifying.

Training Log - Entry 295

Bench: 205 x 5, 217 x 5, 225 x 3 x 5
WG Bench: 175 x 5 x 6
Incline Bench: 145 x 5 x 6
BB Curl: 85 x 5 x 10
Seal Row: 107 x 5 x 10
 
BW: 199
 
Notes: This went very well all things considered. Played around with my bench grip a bit, decided that was stupid and the rest went well. Last set of incline bench was a true-blue RPE 10 grinder, so I think I auto-regulated everything perfectly. Curls and rows were good, nice and pumpy

NG Finger Curls: 40 x 4 x 10

Notes: First day back since getting my wisdom teeth removed. They're still bothering me a little bit but it's not too bad. It'll be interesting to see how the next week goes, I'd like to think of the past week as a deload but due to lack of adequate sleep and nutrition it was likely anything but. I'm super tired now.
