Training Notes
Ok day, I sort of mollycoddled myself.
Training
- first set of squats with 315, oh wow pretty heavy and hard
- second, of this is fine!
- rest of squats were great!
- benching went well, everything felt solid
- I was lazy and didn't want to do more close grip work
- deadlifts were good, HERC pushed me to do speed work with 315 instead of 225, things worked out alright.

Training Notes
Fine session, I failed my attempts to PR on squat, though I learned a bunch in the process.
My first two were forward a bit, and on the last I needed to maintain tension throughout the descent. The most important thing I learned was that I need to squat heavy more often and regulate my squat form regardless of weight.

PR video

PR deadlift video from earlier. It was messy, though I know I could make this lift in a meet, and that's what counts.
