Notes
Bench felt great overall.  I'm satisfied getting in 3-4 sets solid heavy sets.  I feel like I'm on the brink of a nice PR next week.  I felt good today, but force on the bar might have been 90% of what I feel I'm capable.   I don't know how to explain, but I could just feel I wasn't peaked tonight even though I felt strong.  I think it has less to do with the weight on the bar and more to do with the general bar speed relative to my session last week.

I'm burnt out on bent rows.  I think I'm going to drop them for DB rows or something next mesocycle.  I love the movement, it will always be a staple of mine, but I'm starting to dread them.

Dips felt good.  PR basically because I haven't done weighted dips too often.
