Felt some lingering fatigue and soreness heading into this session.

I was surprised by quad fatigue.  I guess from the Squat EMOMs on Friday?

Bench training with that crew on Saturday predictably impacted my pressing today.  I cut the main press short by one set, as pec discomfort between sets kept building.  Wanted to hedge and give that a chance to recover before Wednesday's WG Bench session.

50X14, 9 @9//10
40X9 @10

Worked out early with a bunch of long-time gym friends that train together in a Westside-style conjugate system.  We were moving too fast and using kilo plates, so I couldn't keep track of the actual weight lifted on DE Bench.

We decided to then max out on Reverse Grip Bench.  I've never done it before so that was exciting.

Was definitely out of gas by the time I got to the Bis'n'Tris.  Skipped conditioning.

Stopped fighting the swing on the PBLR's and instead just tried to control the eccentric.  Yeah, I got more reps, but everything was also a lot smoother, and I still really feel the abs working.
