I'm pretty sure my switch back to "3 per week" rather than "Every other day" will pay off now. Not deloading for about another two weeks, though.

Warmup

Deadlift: 135x5, 185x5, 225x1, 275x1, 315x1 (mixed)

5x5 - 245lbs

I actually had to stop and reset for the last few of these. My grip is giving out (this is a recovery issue and not a strength one; I was hitting easy sets of 10 at 225 as an accessory about a month ago).

Bench: 45x5, 95x1, 145x1

5x5 - 115lbs

I'm losing the abdominal bracing from pilates. I'm blaming fatigue for this one too, though I suspect I could be doing more to regain it.

Chin Up Holds:

7s, 5s, 3s, 3s, 3s

Blast straps; easier on the joints, harder on the movement.

I have progress pics now, but they're on my girlfriend's camera and I don't know how to get them off.
