Squats were solid.  Haven't squatted 255 since April '12, and those were high.  So a rep PR at full depth.  Nice long pause on the pause squats to really make the set hard.

Double-overhand grip started to go on the 325 set of pulls.  Barely got it locked out as a result.  I held the last rep of 275 for about 15 seconds to get some grip work in.  I have foolishly neglected to do that for this cycle which sucks.  I may throw some plate pinches or some shit in on Bench day in the hopes of shoring it up, but I definitely think I will need to do mixed-grip for the last week and that blows.
