First un-coached session on this plan.  Although my coach was in the gym, and he did stop by between my 2nd and 3rd Squat work-sets to say "a bit deeper and keep your head down."  Everything went pretty well.

Squats were probably the hardest of the three lifts on this day.  We'll just have to see if I can adapt fast enough to keep up with the progression for a while longer.  If I do, I'll start hitting rep PRs on the Squat and Press in week 3, Deadlift PRs in week 4, and Bench PRs in week 5.  Five weeks to PR'ing in everything is hard for my to swallow after being on such "slow but steady" programs for several years, but there's only one way to find out.
