Starting Strength: Week 4

low-bar back squat (5x45, 5x95, 3x135, 1x155 then 3x5x165)
press (5x40, 5x70 then 5/5/4x80)

3x5 dips

10 back extensions
10 weighted situps (25)
10 weighted back extensions (25)
10 weighted situps (25)

Starting to notice the weight now. Squats went up OK but some slowing on the reps 4-5, though 3rd set went up easier than 2nd - it helped to lower more slowly and in control. Failed the last rep of the final set of press @80, mostly because of L rotator cuff pain. Might reset lower or work on incline bench for a bit.

No power cleans today, short on both time and space.
