Nice job on the front squats, I'll have to give that a shot in the future. I hit Zerchers every few weeks but more for core work, I'll have to start switching between the two.
How much rest are you taking between sets on the 10x3 bench? I'm getting bored a frustrated with my 5x5 and hitting heavier weights added with slightly higher volume might give me what I need after I deload for a week.

Front Squats
325x4
315x2
315x3
295x2
Trying to up the weight on these, my quads and ass are absolutely killen me right now.
Weight Dips
100x5
100x5
90x4
45x20
I use two carbingers on these to secure the chain to my belt. Well when I put on the 2 45's and the dime plate the chain barely fit. I did my sets and tried to take to unbuckle the carbinger to take off some weight. I soon realized that I wrapped it too tight and I could not unbuckle it. I started panicking, fast forwarding to how much of a scene I would make if they had to come in with a chain cutter and cut my chain off in front of the entire gym.
One of the Y workers started approaching me as he could see I was struggling. So I quickly donned the belt and did another set, trying to play it off as if I was just adjusting the chain between sets and was really not in any trouble. He kind of hovered around a different area of the gym.
I really started panicking and tried to look at how I could maneuver the plates so that I could have enough slack to unbuckle the chain. I saw if I interlocked the two 45's I could buy my self a little extra slack. I did this and it was still too tight, I lifted up the dime plate to give my self a tiny bit more slack and that barely gave me what I needed. I unbuckled it and it felt like a weight was lifted off my shoulders.
I think I need a longer chain...

do you do any sort of assistance work? or do you literally just go in the gym and do the big lift and leave?
I often see just deads or squats listed then like above its front squats and dips... do you do any other smaller things afterwards? If so what sorts of stuff do you do on each workout?

Yes I do, the reason I only record my big lift is because I feel like there is no point in logging my assistance.
Depending on how I do my core lift for the day my strength on assistance will vary day to day so without consistency I don't really feel like logging it.
Plus I didn't think you guys cared how much I DB flyed or BB rowed.
Bench 10x3
DB chest Press
DB Flye
DB Skull crushers
Deadlift
speed deadlift
SLDL
BB Rows
Lat pull downs
Good mornings
core work
Military press 3x5
Weighted dips
OH DB press
shoulder work
Front Squat
weighted pull ups
core work
I did weighted dips on my front squat day because I missed my OHP day.
