225x5
260x3
295x5x3
I'm beginning to notice my knees caving more, and my left hip acting up a bit. It might be time to cut the couch stretch on that side, either time-wise or altogether. My right quad hurts very slightly when that side caves in.

Pull-Up -
8, 7, 6, 6, 5
As we gradually approach completion in 4 sets...

Barbell Row -
140x8x3
I get a lot out of imitating the deadlift as much as possible here. Chris says he's found some advantage in doing these with oly shoes; I may take him up on that, though since it's positional and I'm trying to match my deadlift groove as much as possible, it may not be a great idea. We'll see.

Front Squat Hold -
275x30s
295x30s
315x30s
These still work, but they also seem to destabilize my right shoulder. I'll keep going and pay attention to the effect.
