Workout B - 12/16/12 - I'm an idiot

Squat:
175 x 5
175 x 5
175 x 5

Press:
95 x 5
95 x 5
95 x 5

Rows:
130 x 5
130 x 5
130 x 5

Chin-ups:
BW x 7
BW x 5

Standing cable crunch:
60 x 17
60 x 17
60 x 17

Squats were exceedingly difficult.  I had to REALLY push to get a couple of the reps up.  Though my last set was stronger than my second, once again.  I'm going to start micro-loading with 2.5 lb increments now, as I feel I'm very close to failing my first set now.  I felt such a rush when I completed the third set.  It was really intense, like I haven't felt before while lifting.  Mega adrenaline!

So yeah, as the title says, I'm an idiot.  I can't believe I did 95 lbs on overhead press again.  I even loaded up 100 lbs like I was supposed to, then thought it was wrong and took it back down to 95.  What the hell?  The last rep was a struggle so I guess it's not the worst thing in the world.  I'm going to micro-load this up to 97.5 lbs next time as well (in theory/if I'm not an idiot again).  Rows were tough and I think I need to repeat the same weight again to get some form issues worked out.  I'm definitely not tight at the top of the movement.  My first set of chin-ups felt good, and my second felt pretty weak.  I was spent at that point.

Music of the workout that got me through my last set of squats:
