Notes
-Mixed feelings on today.  Missed 320 double again this week.   315 felt as easy as ever so I decided to go up.  I got out of the groove again on the first rep.  I seriously need to settle the fuck down and make sure I get solid controlled reps like I do 99% of the time.

-On the flip side, I hit 2 unexpected PR's in the bent row.  Just felt good warming up, so I went for it.  275x5 is a 1 rep PR without the belt.  300x3 is a 5lb PR with the belt.

-I'm going to focus on the positive here remember I hit a push press PR last week, and bent row PR this week.  Both of these are heavy and legit indicators of overall strength.  I'll be fine if they keep going up.
