175 lb Military Press 5x2 PR!!, 44 kg belt squats, Floor pushups 3 x 50 PR!, crawls, rear delts




This went pefectly. As good as I could have hoped. Nothing on my body hurt, warmups were fast and easy and gave me confidence instead of filling me with doubt.
It didn't hurt that it was a balmy 82 degrees in the cave, I mean my garage. So hard for me to lift heavy when I'm cold; it always takes me forever to warmup then I cool off way too easy in winter but this was perfect.

Made a small technique change too which worked great- I put the bar even higher on my clavicles than before and it was the just right place.The bar seemed to launch back over my head, right where I wanted it.

Military Press
45 x 5
85 x 3
105 x 3
120 x 2
135 x 1
150 x 1 good!
160 x 1 good!
170 x 1 solid too!
175 x 2 x 5 sets!!! PR

didn't have  a bad rep. One rep got slightly out in front but barely and I brought it right back in ( 3rd set 2nd rep I believe) but it was the best compilation of technique I have done in this lift

Walkouts
195 x 1
210 x 1
225 x 1 !!1




great view of my elbows and what they're doing ( right) at the start of the press. All I did when Glenn said press was to squeeze the bar and look how it jumped! Still. I see I need to get my elbows up even more!
