Deadlift -
400X2 @8.75
342.5X6, 6, 6 @8
Pause Squat - 275X5, 5, 5 @8
Axle Bench - 197.5X5, 5, 5 @~8
400 is a weight PR on Deadlift, and obviously a Rep PR. Nice. Felt easier than I expected, but not as easy as it looks on the video. There was some "meet day" mental focus that contributed to this lift, as there always is for a milestone. Target for next week will be 4 plates (maybe more). So we'll do it all over again, then.
Back-off sets also all felt very good, although this is a new-ish bar and the heavy knurling on TnG deadlift is brutal on the hands. I add a ton of extra chalk just to try and mitigate it.
Pause Squats felt very good. I probably could have added a touch more weight, but 275 is just nice.
Axle bench was a little tough because I still have some DOMS in my pec from the previous session. Made the first couple of works sets a little tough, but was solid by the end.
Video is of top sets and final work sets.
