• Was supposed to do this yesterday but had a headache all day that I just couldn’t shake. Had a decent nights sleep though and got out mid morning today instead, sore throat and all.

• Trap bar deadlifts moved ok today but I needed some time to catch my breath afterwards. Apparently this is a PR with the low handles.
• Added a little weight to the belt squats again, tried not to cheat the pauses too much. Felt like these were pretty decent sets but I’m starting to get some hip soreness so maybe I’m reaching its limits a bit with squatting.
• Benching felt a bit wonky but but not painful. Had some shoulder pings from the rows and lateral raises but managed to push them both reasonably hard.
• Long session today, 87 minutes.
