Okay session.
I hoped to push Bench to 225 for the top 3@8, but warm-up made that seem unlikely, and it turned out coming in roughly on target at 220. Back-off set came in a little under target RPE @9, but I expect that on the first week or so as I dial-in the target weights.
Based on something Greg Nuckols said on a recent podcast, I thought I'd try a version of 1.5s on Chins. With this version, I get within a rep or 2 of failure on the full reps, and then I do half-reps in the bottom ROM to within a rep or 2 of failure. Not sure how to put my performance on these in context. Last block, I started un-weighted chins by getting 10 total reps across 3 sets. Here, I got 9 total, full ROM reps across 3 sets, plus nine, half-ROM reps. So...that's more? I will say, I felt a little "fresher" after these sets than I think I do after sets of full reps. We'll see!
Haven't done upright rows in a while. Thought I would be starting out with more weight for more reps, but whatevs. My traps were really sore a couple days after doing these.
Curls were also a bit weaker than I expected.
