24 Minutes of Stretching

Comments: Very good workout today. Back was feeling much better, so much so that it was hard to tell if it was still from the stupidity of Friday or just deadlift hangover. Pressing was feeling slow with triples but when I went to singles the weight flew up on me. I'm very pleased with getting 365 convincingly and giving 380 a ride. A short ride, but a ride nonetheless. Accidentally made battering ram out of my log and some bands setting it up for reverse band presses. Luckily only an old sweatshirt was harmed. 320 felt like it was crushing my chest but it went up quite well. I was tempted to try 360 for a single but I knew better than to press my luck. Finished up with upperback stuff. No more lifting heavy or at all until Monday.
