Okay session.  The 3 sets of 3 with 255 matches my best for Pausers which was done just a few weeks back.  These were still a little grind-y though.  I was going to progress up to sets of 4 and 5, but I'm questioning the wisdom of that.  At the very least I may want to look at doing fewer top sets.

Bench was going okay, but then the bar drifted left on the set of 155 and I strained something in my left shoulder.  I was able to complete the bench workout, and also do the push-presses in the complex, but it's definitely needed icing and anti-inflammatories since.  165X12 matches my previous Rep PR.

I pushed up both the reps per set and the total sets on this complex.  But it's still a killer.
