Well I've been lacking in participating in the program party. I'll be more consistent moving forward.

I've completed the first week of Pool Season with the following 1RM: TM %
Bench: 1RM 245: 92% TM
Squat: 1RM 305: 90%TM
Deadlift: 1RM 365: 90%TM

W1D1
Pretty good introduction into the week. I tend to be more leg dominant so the squat was pretty easy, bench felt good. Really like the backoff sets for bench, could always use more bench volume. I tend to sub meadows rows for the 1-arm row and DB skull crushers for straight bar. Cardio fried my shoulders but it was a good day.

W1D2
Pretty quick day but had to drop weight on the overhead press after the deadlift. Felt the pullovers in my lats, also like the lower reps on this program. Feels like when I'm doing pullovers for 8+ reps I never can jump up in weight.

W1D3
Love the squat day, good amount of volume. Really focused on form for the 2 arm rows. Was able to get some greyskull conditioning in after this workout, 100 jump rope x 400m run x3.

W1D4
I've read about this day on previous program party threads but had yet to experience it. It was everything I hoped for, lol. Since the bench was such a low % I had hoped to round up, but quickly figured out I needed to run down for the working weight. The pump was unreal by the end of it, and I had to drop a few weights for the shrugs. I ended up just breaking them into sets of 25 with minimal rest in between. I had hoped to get a greyskull conditioning session in afterwards, but I was spent so I'll try to combine it with my zone 2 cardio on Sat.

All in all the first week, with the exception of W1D4 I've been able to get through the workouts in about an hour. Really like this program so far, already can tell I'll either re-run it or try Pool Season II afterwards.
