You not only don’t have to do a Joker, but you should not take them weekly.

I know, thats why I kept them lighter and didn't push it. I wasn't supposed to take a cookie from the jar, but I was at least polite enough to put the lid back on when I was done. Unfortunately I still ate the cookie, though.

I may never successfully cut again. My wife has progressed from making English muffins, to sourdough (amazing) to this supply of bagels she just texted me.

I did, lol, but it was more the triceps. arms were feeling joooocy!

right now app figures me at a 322lb 1RM (not likely, lol) and you're right, a 305lb TM.
it looks like my next weeks rx is 3 x 275 with 6 being the AMRAP goal. although I'm stressing over that less and less these days as long as I am clean, can afford a Joker, and hit my BBB.

Yeah, you tend to have that high strength endurance so you can lift a lot closer to your 1Rm for reps than the average lifter. So it is likely a little skewed.

It's okay, it is your cookies you are stealing, it ain't hurting anyone else's progress, and it seems to increase your enjoyment. So as long as you are aware of the trade off, and are enjoying the process it isn't an issue.
