"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."

192.5 Strict Press PR!,44 kg belt squat, floor pushups, combo laterals
What an amazing freaking day! A perfect press workout. Everything went right and nothing went wrong. Felt great, mind was strong. the new technique worked like a charm from the start, I was as calm as could be and unafraid!It's THESE days that I live for, keep working through the much for, keep hoping aren't gone forever.
The FLOW. The Moment.

The belt definitely helped but it wasn't the deciding factor, the technique change was
Strict Press
45 x 5
65 x 3
85 x 3
117 x 2
135 x 1 ( HUGE jump , went easy!)
150 x 1 very fast, groove was there, double layback technique,)
165 x 1 also fast and strong
180 x 1
this also went better than ever
190 x 1
192.5
this was an important hard rep. Not because the technique didn't hold, but because I didn't trust it, didn't commit to it completely. I knew that if I did 192.5 would fly. I had though about 195 but didn't want to get too greedy. I totally believe I would have made it.
HAVE TO TRUST the technique which is this:
regular setup into layback
Then, layback again THEN push the bar. IF I don't lay back first, and hard it looks like the 190. OR if I try to layback and push simultaneously I can miss out in front
Setup into initial arch (1st layback )
Them layback then push the bar
Then get under it at lockout.
172.5 x 3 PR
165 x 4 PR
155 x 5 ties PR
the technique held very well.
freaking psyched!
