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.

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.

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
