Got some singles after the double with 260. Yippee! Hurt my left trap on the first single, though. It's still hurting.

I weighed 189 in the middle of the day. It's been almost two weeks since I reinitiated LGD dosing. I think the weight is starting to climb back up. I was down to 187 by the time I got back to the gym.

My back squat and deadlift were both personal records. So. Yeah.

I wore my super light Harbinger black Power  (tee hee) wraps so loosely today that I was able to keep them on for hours. My Rehband sleeves are shot. One has a hole in the seem line. So I wanted a little support, but no rebound. So this is definitely better than that 365 x 1 I got years ago with my then-new Rehbands.

My grip gave out an inch before I got the second 475 on the floor. Would not have counted in a meet. But it counts here as a hard-won second rep.

Oh...and I paused the first squat reps on each set up to 275. Long pauses. Getting very comfortable with these. I also held 405 in the bottom after the negative. That is the most weight I've ever held high bar...and the most weight I've had on my back at all without a belt.
