215 x6
235 x6
255 x6

Feel good.  Yesterday was cheat day but sadly only got like 5k cals.... Meh, down to like 212 in the AM and looking a bit leaner for sure.  Gonna maintain and be ~209-211 by worlds and then cut the last 5lb.

Saturday PM

Medium grip BP with chains (25lb fully loaded/unloaded):
185 x6
225 x6
245 x6
265 x6
295 5x3 - Very happy.  Couple months ago 295+chain x3 with comp grip was slow and this was reasonable speed.  Bench is definitely moving!

Incline DB bench: 80lb x17
Pullups x10
Lat pulldown x20
DB rows x15
Rear delt x25

Good session.  Did 1 hard set of each exercise.  Liked that system.

Saturday - AM session

Conventional deadlift from ~4inch blocks:
225 x5
275 x5
325 3x5
375 3x3
325 x10 - from the floor.... Easier than from the blocks.  I guess this is a ever so lame PR.

Seeing how the high block pulls were WAY harder than from the floor, I will do these again.  Then did lotsa mobility and 10 mins on rower/bike for some blood flow.  Will be in again for some bench and upper back assistance.  Feeling really fresh today.  Hopefully squats will stop sucking...

Friday June 1 - PM

Deadlift:
315 2x4
385 2x3
435 5x3
Not bad.  For beltless pulls I will take it.

Bench - Close grip with feet in the air:
165 x5
195 x5
225 x5
255 5x4
Easy.  This is a good movement.  Stresses tightness and lockout, 2 things I need!

Pullups: 2 sets

Ran out of time there so called it.
