"And in those simple beautiful movements I remembered what was really important in training; that consistency trumps intensity; all the time. That intensity is born from consistency. That one cannot force it, one has to lay in wait for it, patiently, instinctively, calmly and be ready to grab it when Grace lays it down in front of you."

120 lb Military Press 5x5, 40 kg belt squat, floor pushups,crawls, rear delt
Glad I made myself take this deload. I almost talked myself into trying 140 for 5x5 one more time but knew better. Today's weight felt SO light. It's not too long ago at all that this was my 5x5 pr and was as hard as 140 is now
The lighter weight also let me play with technique and position a bit and I think I figured something out. Instead of looking up I looked straight ahead during the press and didn't have ANY reps that drifted forward. Perhaps it's just cause it's lighter but it felt great AND my lockout seemed better
We'll see if it holds next week
Military press
stick x 5 x 2
bar x 5
