Just my $.02 on how I would approach it. I'm sure some others on here have some good ideas too.
What I did:
bar only x 8
135 x 8
205 x 5
245 x 5
275 x 3
310 (failed attempt)

What I will try next Monday:
bar only x 8
135 x 8
205 x 5
245 x 3
275 x 1
310 x ?

I think it was the triple at 275 that fatigued me, so I will definitely dial that down. Heck, if I get 310 I will probably wait 5 or 6 minutes and try for 315. Determined to press three plates at least once in my life.
