Day 22 down!

Today felt great! The more sets I hit the better everything started to feel. I had a good sweat going during the 10 minutes of squat, but no REAL burn. The burn came during the OHP sets.

On Day 8 I hit 12 sets at 85%, and today I pushed it to 16! I used the upper end of the suggested ranges for bench and OHP. Bench felt great and the bar moved at a good speed. I did feel the rests were a little too long, but I honored them as written. I hit 11 sets on OHP. The first 5 were smooth and easy. Form stayed good until sets 10 and 11. Those were burning pretty bad and while form never went into the bad range, it definitely wasn't as good as the first sets.

Day 23 done

The pause squat sets were by far the easiest lift today. I was bummed it was only 3 rep sets. The deadlift/chin-up SS was solid. I used up every bit of the 2.5 min rests. I've been trying to work on grip strength and not use straps. My hands are killing me between the deadlifts and shrugs.
