Deads and PUs: none

Today's workout was at CrossFit Confluence. The squats went well and if we didn't have to hurry through the sets a bit, I would have started at a heavier weight. The final 230lbs went well enough that I could probably get 235lbs next time, even if I start heavier.

The second part of the workout was a killer. I scaled the deadlift weight from 135 -> 95lbs to protect my back. I was able to get through most DL sets unbroken, so next time I should up the weight 10-15lbs. The push-ups were painful and by the end, I was breaking them up into sets of 3-4.
