Looking like a killer dead lift too Codger!

Thanks, SP! Hope I can pull it off, so to speak. -
Week 1 day 2 of peaking.
Deadlift with belt: 445x1x1@8; 415x4x1@9; 385x4x2. Five minutes rest.
Close-grip bench: 225x1x1@? 220x3x1@10; 197.5x3x3. Five minutes rest. The single went up fast so I thought it felt like an 8. For the second set I should have loaded the bar with 215 but mistakenly loaded 220 for a triple, which was definitely an RPE 10. I might dial the top set back to 220 next week.
Squat, no belt: 255x6x1@7; 265x6x3@8. Five minutes rest.Comment

Yeah I did that the other day...sort of. Just going through bench warm-up sets. After warming up with light reps at 95#, I put 155# for the next warmup set.
Only to realize that I forgot to the 10# on one side. So I went through the set of five thinking "this seems kinda easy, but feels funny at the same time". Laughed out loud as I logged my 145# crooked warmup....
