"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."

160 lb Press 5x5, 48 kg belt squat, floor pushups, laterals
This went well but even more important, Glenn figured out what I was doing wrong on my descent on the press that's been causing problems ( and probably why I missed the fifth set of 5 with 170) - I've been coming forward with my torso as the bar descends!
And I distinctly remember ( now) the feeling of being back the whole time for the 5 reps when they were so easy. Staying in the incline position. Just fell into an old, bad habit but this really is going to help.
I thought I just had to drive my hips forward more but I couldn't seem to but this puts me back into balance.
Have to go a bit heavier on wednesday though, up to 125 I think to get enough resistance to test this out. Also I think I'm going to go 5x5 there too, just light
