Really good day. Bench is a legitimate PR. My touch and go PR is 77.5, I did 70x3 for short pauses a while back, and my "comp" pause PR is 73.5 for a single. Given that I went into this fatigued from two prior days of pressing, I'd say gains are being made.
Sumo is still pretty awkward but I'm improving a good bit. I strapped for all sets today because I was forced to use the bar that has no knurling where I grip. Probably for the best given how messed up my hands have been getting from 3x a week pulling.
