80%+ session. 295X8 is an all-around PR on Deadlift. I really should try to enjoy these more, as they're bound to dry up again sooner or later, but it's become so routine for me to set PR's in this lift. I've only ever crapped out on Deadlift twice. Once was October of 2011 when I tried 315 for the first time and it wouldn't budge, and the second was in July of this year when I first started 531 Full-Body and ended up having to lower my training maxes across the board because I had lost a lot of strength in the lead up to opening a show.
Grip strength is starting to get dicey double-overhand, and that's why I added another 1 rep set just to time out my holds. This was just an idea, and I might try to go with something more conventional, as my hands/forearms don't feel sore the day after. I should probably also just start using chalk for my top sets to make sure it's less of an issue.
Added a bit more weight and reps on the hypers today, so that's cool.
Went to do the ab wheel, and my abs started screaming at me right away. Guess they weren't fully recovered from last time. Pretty weak. I did some chiropractor crunches to get some work in on them anyway.
