Nice session.

I've been flagging Week 7 as my peak week since I've been using Emerging Strategies, and I will say that motivated me to dial-in a little tighter today.

Solid jumps on OHP.

Nice 5 lb. jump on Bench top set.  177.5X12 is a 12 Rep PR.  Second set was much tougher for some reason. 

Reps on Chins were comparable to last week, but BW was up 3 lbs. so it feels like progress.

Pull-Downs felt/have been feeling kind of plateau-y so instead of repeating the weight on the 2nd set, I dropped back to the work weight from week 1.   That was 90X12 @8 on the first set in week 1, so 90X14 @9.5 on the second set feels progress-ish.
