"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."

165 lb Press 4 x 5, 1x 3 PR!, 40 kg belt squat, floor pushups, laterals
VERY VERY good day. While not perfect it was more than I had hoped for. I was thinking of 3x5 and 2 x 4 with 165 but I got 4 sets of 5 and 1 x 3. Just got tired at the end and hit triceps death :)
But can't complain at all. Figured out a few things too and that's always worth it's weight in gold. I was stretching through the hips on the descent trying to create a bow like effect. It worked ok but not as good as the usual descent followed by a hip thrust to initiate. Only way to find these things out is to test them and that I did.
Part of the reason I missed the last rep was fatigue from a couple very slow reps brought on by mistiming the descent. No worries
