Maybe it was the quality of sleep, I don’t know, but I felt like I crushed the weights today. As always, I feel weakest in my first set, and progressively stronger with each set. Whether it was physical or mental or both, I nailed that last set of bench. I’ve checked my records, and my best performance has been 5, 4, 5 @ 165 lbs. I should be able to surpass that either next week, or the week after.

As for rows, best previous performance was 4, 3, 3 @ 85 lbs. While I will be backcycling (probably) to 80 lbs, it’s nice to know I set a personal best.
