Notes
Kind of a grinder tonight.  I'm gonna fucking push it the next couple of weeks.  I will say I started to get a taste of the full body beat down tonight. I've only been lifting 2x a week for a while now, but I haven't had a deload in months really.  But, overall I still have good pop.

Goal is to hit 50 reps each in squats/overhead at 315/135 before moving on.  There is zero thought behind this other than "It would be cool to squat 315 for 50 reps in one workout."  Hopefully I'll hit this within 3 weeks.  I'd like to hit it "naturally," i.e. just getting better at the lifts, rather than deciding to just do it one day and blow my guts out.  Once I hit these goals, I will switch things up a  little.  Still squat twice a week, but maybe switch out overhead and chins for bent rows and dips.  I dunno.

I'm doing chins extremely explosively now.  Not high reps, but complete deadhang for 1-3 seconds, then slam my chest to the bar.  3-6 reps.  BW or weighted, whatever feels better that night. I switch grips every set.  Tonight for instance I went from relatively wide overhand to hands touching underhand.  Just feels healthier to switch it up.  I'm not really tracking them, so who cares.
