I was a bit tentative on DL because of last week's lower back issues, but no problems today.

Backing off of intensity has allowed me to push volume in this "pivot" block to 17 worksets in a session over 2 weeks still with headroom to add more.  The last few blocks before this I've been capping out around 14 worksets before fatigue demanded a change.

I'm glad I gave a shot to pushing intensity instead of volume, but I think I may be a volume boi.  

I've got one more out of town trip this weekend, and then I should finally have a runway for more consistent training for a while.  However, I might let this program run a couple of extra weeks just to see what happens before I go back into another specialization block.
