155 lb Military press 4x4 1x3 ,36 kg belt squats, floor pushups,crawls, rear delts



My press is definitely "off". Last week was a mess and while I'm better now my groove is off.The idea I had after last wednesday that I could be more upright ain't gonna work

"its all easy til it's heavy" is a rule. It won't be violated. It wasn't

I also think the false grip is making the bar move forward and at the top weights I don't have any margin for error. My 180 and 185 used the wrapped thumb.  That should tell me something, and the 170 for 5 x 2 all had forward second reps.

So I was thinking i would back off and go light. Except I backed off to my 5x5 pr. It wasn't that easy. I got 4 sets of 4 and COULD have done 5's if I was really willing to grind but the groove and stablility didn't seem right so I didn't want to fight it.

Honestly, I think the barbell dl and squat have messed my groove up. It'll come back fast enough I'm sure but I actually do think that's it.


I also think that cutting out the third day of pushups in favor of the arm casts was a mistake.
That's how I learn. Making changes and paying attention to the results  ( or lack thereof )

190 x 1 x 12, 210/225 static holds, 24 kg goblet squats, floor pushups 30, 20

 This went VERY well almost all reps identical. Realized I get better drive AND minimize shoulder stress if I unrack it with more weight on ...
