Pulls 400x5, 420x4, 435x3, 445x2, 465x1, 475x1, 495x1

I think I showed remarkable restraint in not going over 500 for the top single. Weights moved very fast today, but my hands hurt pretty bad and I had trouble holding onto the bar on the higher-rep sets. No idea why this was the case.

Wide-stance leg press 4s x 20

Machine high row 10-8-6-5-5

Machine crunch 4s x 8-12

SlingShot bench press 335x5, 350x3, 360x3, 370x2,  380x1

Close-grip press 2s x 6

Looks like the Tuesday workout totally wrecked my lower back. Weights felt okay, but I couldn't get much leg drive into the presses.

Seated cable row 10-8-6-5-5

Standing BTN press 135x5, 155x4, 165x3, 175x2

Tricep superset overhead cable extension + cable pushdown x 3 sets

Concentration curl 3s x 6-8

Back was still severely sore today, so I cut my workout short. Next week I'll back off the deadlift singles and try to push the squats a bit harder.

Squat 405x5, 415x4, 425x3, 435x2

Leg press 2s x 20
