Squats felt a little better than the last workout, although my adductor pain was worse.  The first set continues to be the worst one.  Bench was fine weight-wise, but my left elbow was hurting still.  Hopefully I can get it feeling better over the next couple days, or else it'll definitely start limiting me.  Deadlift was tough but and I felt like my grip was going to fail.  I'm not sure if I should get straps or start using an alternating-palm grip.  I used it for the last rep and predictably my grip was much better.  I used -30 pounds on assisted dips to work on my form and give my elbow a rest.  I think I'm going to work up from there, at least until my elbow feels better.

Music!
