"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."

180 lb press 5 x 2, 135 x 10 PR, 48 kg belt squat, Floor pushups, laterals
This started out very tough and ended up very well.
All things were go at the start and it was a very tough heavy start. Felt good, elbow resolved itself, sleep was solid, no alcohol mindset good but the warmups and the first set felt heavy. Had thought I would do the first set with 180 and if it was strong I would go 182.5 for the rest. My first set scuttled that idea. It was slow, at least the first rep
but the second set was solid and then the third (above) was strong as was 4 and 5
Maybe just got warmed up?
