Notes
-Totally depleted going into this workout.  Not much to say other than I basically threw RTS principles/guidelines out the window and kept squatting.  Last week I did  4 doubles at 365, this week I did 6 triples at 365.  I'm not sure if that represents an actual strength increase considering I got pretty pumped up to complete the sets tonight.

-Looking forward to the intensity phase next week.  This is the 4th week in a row of higher volume, including the RTS prep week.  I'll go beltless at least the first week.  I might throw the belt on week 2/3 of intensity if I feel like something PR worthy is in the works.
