York or New York?
York has some fine bars out there that seem to be pretty inexpensive.

Definitely a York. The new knurling tore the hands up a little.

you'll know you're old when the first thing your doctor does when he sees you is put on a rubber glove and reach for the k-y jelly so he can shake hands with your prostate.

Maybe you should back off a touch. You should be a bit sore, but fresh.
Doing sets on "nerve", like the old timers used to say, should be reserved before a deload or layoff, so you can supercompensate.
