Iron Revolution, Week 6, Day 2

Squats 
425/1, 440/1, 440/1

Both singles @440 were probably a little high, if I was being honest. This is probably what I am going to target as a third attempt. It wouldn't be a gym PR, but it would be a meet PR. 

Paused Speed Bench (5x3, 50%, 45 seconds rest)
150/5x3

Shoulder Press (3x3)
DB's: 80's/3, 85's/3, 85's/3 (this is actually a 3RM... could have done more reps if I was actually attempting a rep max)

185/5, 195/5, 205/5, 215/5, 225/5

Chins

   * 260 moved very well, so I wanted to see where I was with heavier weights. 265 was fast. I also hit 275 for the first time in a while....that might be my third attempt on meet day.
