Just as I had hoped! 150 for 5 sets of 3 was solid so I upped the weight to 155 and 3 sets of 2 was even better.
Raised the floor an inch by putting a square of gym mat under the rack and it was not too soft, as I feared. And it really really helped my unracking of the bar and my left biceps tendon issue(which was doing well anyway). But raising the floor an inch made a huge difference in my take off, which made a huge difference in my press
It takes me forever to warmup but I can't rush it. 5 warmup sets and 8 work sets!
set four of five
Military press
stick x 5
45 x 5
65 x 5
85 x 3
105 x 3
125 x 2
140 x 2
150 x 3 x 5 sets
155 x 3 x 2 sets ( ties PR weight for reps but not volume)
very happy with this and the new setup

"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."
