Thought I would give Squats a try even with my tweaked back.  It was dicey working up, but with a ton of sit back and keeping my shins fairly vertical, I managed to work up to a new 1 Rep PR of 305.  I went for 2, but I felt my back strain tweak a little and dumped the bar.  I stipped it down to see if I could move on to High Bars, but even with the empty bar they hurt pretty bad at the bottom of the movement, so I moved on to a bench day.

145X13, 6 beats my single-set and total volume rep goals for this weight, so I can move up to 155 next week.

Managed to eke out 5X5 with 195 on the reverse cambered bench, but it was hard as hell.  I'm going to go ahead and move up next week since I got the full 5X5, but it's getting dicey.

Upped the weight on DB Bench and the reps on Rear Delts.  Also upped the weight on hammer curls.
