Notes
Chins have really improved over the last few weeks.  Losing weight definitely helps.  I have a lot more pop from the stretched position, and my ability to grind through the reps improves.

Press at 170 got a little tough.  Again, I feel limited by my sore lower back from deadlifts yesterday.  I'm going to throw the belt on during weeks 5 and 6.
