Notes: not a bad week.  Finally getting back into the swing of things.  I'm still doing my arm day on Saturdays but for Monday and Thursday I'm changing it up to 1 giant rest pause set each to reduce total volume a bit.  The reason being is that I plan on incorporating some more sumax sets on the push days, whether that be the incline bench on overhead days or a flat variation on bench days.  I want to set this up similar to my squat day where I'll do 5 sets on my 5s day, 4 sets on my 3s day and 3 sets on my 1s day.  I also switched out the decline press for the incline press because I feel like the incline press can help with my shoulder strength, which I feel is a big weak point that I'm going to have to deal with if I want my max to stay consistently above 400.
