Pitiful workout. BP couldn't even match my last session, and I just felt weak throughout. Not sure what's going on - might just be fatigue and little sleep catching up with me. Diet has been good and been getting enough food.

PC: 155x3, 175x2,1, 190x1,1,1 (this is a PR, but I'm not getting enough explosiveness to get the bar high; I'm scooping it. Not going to move about this until I have the explosiveness at this weight)

I feel like I'm stalling a bit this week on some of my lifts. I'm going to see how the next week goes, but I may back off 5-10% on my big lifts and do more sets across for a couple weeks to try to regain momentum.

Great night! I had a terrible week and did a lot of eating over the weekend, which I think helped. Was a huge confidence booster, which I really needed!
