170 lb press 5 x 4 PR,225 lb setups,40 kg belt squat, floor pushups, two hand arm cast, laterals



This went great. I solved the problem of the split carpet with a new shiny new 1/2" stall mat. I do have to re adjust my setup just a bit though as it essentially lowered my bar by 1/2" but once I realized that it was ok.

Still have to be mindful of it but I love the mat!

Standing press
65 x 5
85 x 3
105 x 3
135 x 3 !
155 x 1
170 x 4 x 5 PR. Not bad at all , and only two slower reps but overall excellent. If i want 5x5 though I will have to clean it up next week on the setup

205 setup


this was revealing as I didn't get much right. hips weren't in front enough, breathing was wrong and you can see on the video I was losing total body tension and wobblying a lot. I also have to be sure to ACTUALLY BE IN THE POSITION TO PRESS IT!  Not just hold it. BIG difference! Hips much more forward and more arch

225 setup


better but still a HOLD not a setup for press

it'll come, first time out. Good news, was the weight did not feel heavy on me
