I made the drive with Brian, today, to train with Van in Mapleton. As my knee is still sore and my left abductor is not 100%, I went light on everything. I actually had to pull back on deadlift, too, and stick with rack pulls. I focused on reps and form, over weight, and frankly, should be taking this approach more often than not as little is typically gained on a max effort, in my experience. Growth comes from repetition with quality form, and a reasonable weight.
Here is today's workout (no video, as nothing too impressive to report):
