OK, first REAL post-meet training session.

I'm going to lower the weight for my work sets by about 40 lb or so, and then work my way back up. My body needs a bit of a break from the heavy pre-meet training.

    • Missed on last rep, last set. Out of energy. Might be because it's been a while since I did sets of 5 across.
