Squat - 325X5, 5, 5
Press - 140X4, 4, 4
Chin-Ups - BW; 21 Reps, 5 Sets
Pull-Downs - 3 sets of 10 (straight-weight; +5 lbs. from last session)
BB Curls - 45X12, 10
Legs were super sore from the sick time I was away from the gym. Squat strength was obviously there, but every rep sucked. Last set shown.
Failed to get 5 reps on Press. Blerg. I actually missed my last middle-day press session because of programming around a trip. Maybe I'll revisit the weight I was supposed to do that time, and go from there. 1st and last sets shown.
Chin-Ups were okay. Starting to work total reps back up.
Started messing around with progressing the assistance exercises. The plan is still not to add additional sets until Chins stall at 25 reps without increasing density. Don't expect world-shaking results from this, just something I'm trying out:
Upped the weight on the pull-downs by "5" lbs. per set.
Decided to take the curl sets to within a rep or 2 of perceived failure or RPE 8-9. Figure the best way to progress those until sets are added is to put reps until both sets are over 12, then up the weight.
