Funny session.

Press definitely didn't feel any stronger, but also didn't seem to backslide. 

Bench high reps felt terrible on the warm-ups, but then the singles just seemed to lock in somehow, and I had a big, 10 lb. jump over last week, even with self lift-off.  Hit the first back-off set, but it felt like it wasn't there (forgot to get video), so I skipped the second set, similar to Squats the day before, since this is the last week of this block.  Just didn't feel like backing off more in the last week.

Likewise, chin-ups and pull-downs were all comparable to last week.  Plateaued at the end of the block. 

Still weird about those Bench singles, though.
