love-hate training day.  i hit all the numbers i'd hoped, but some old [bad] habits came into play.

bench, i turned my legs on late in the lifts.  110# is probably the heaviest triple i've ever benched. i continued the wider grip this week, and it felt great.  i think i got so preoccupied with that and my shoulder position, i forgot the leg drive cue.  i have confidence in my setup, i will focus on the legs next week.

close grip bench made me realize how much the wider grip engages my chest, and my old setup was all triceps.

back squats, 180# is definitely the heaviest triple i've ever hit.  185# was my one-rep max last april.  i positioned the bar lower on my back, which i guess got me so wound up, i completely forgot to do anything right and lead out of the squats... with my butt.  womp, womp, wooooomp.
