Notes: One set narrow grip, one set middle, one set wide.  Stole this from Joe DeFranco. No rest between sets

(7) Mat pulls 555
1x5

Notes: My pec health seems to be falling apart.  I felt the majority of the strain of this movement in my pecs rather than anywhere else.  Need to keep up the blast strap push-ups.  Will most likely make that my WC work this day rather than the swiss bar.  Also thinking of just throwing in a set of push-ups first thing in the morning for some prehab.

Heavy bag
8x2 minute rounds, 30 seconds of rest

First time hitting the bag in months.  Hands wore out before everything else.  Even when trying to punch softly, I'm much stronger than I was before, and it just destroys my hands.

Training Log: Entry 1049

Squats 450
3,2,1

Notes: Theory proves true. On weeks where I pull from the floor for reps, I hit squat PRs. Aside from some loud crunching from my neck at the bottom of the first rep, this felt easy. I think I've got something figured out, and I'm going to ride it for as long as I can. I'm essentially drilling my opener at this point, and being able to open this high means I'll be able to crush my previous numbers.

DB rows 195
5,3,3

DB rows 85
1x24

Pin press lockouts 405 from 11 pin
5,3,1

Notes: Bit by the Westside bug, following a bizzare strategy here. I will altnerate between ME and DE on this day, and move to heavier volume on day A with an RE style approach to benching. ME day will be a ROM progression of rack lockouts hopefully moving down to the chest.

These put a huge amount of strain on the pecs
