215 x X Press, 20 kg speed swings 30 sets of 5, laterals



Decent day I just wasn't strong enough for 215. Can't blame it on anything else; technique was good, sleep was good, mind was good. Just not strong enough which was surprising but there it is.
Plenty of good work though

65,85, 105 x 3
135 x 2
155 x 1
175 x 1
195 x 1  strong!
205 x 1 Decent but not fast, which did not give me confidence for 215 but went for it anyway. Also first attempt was my regular 'push it forward' which I HAVE to stop doing! it's a very bad habit. Second attempt was this

then
215 X Miss
190 x 2 PR

Not long ago 190 was my best so to double it on a down set is a good sign. Back to sets and reps next week

Interesting. Just looked back at my last attempt with 215 which was July 19. Missed it pretty much the exact same place ( one month ago or so). This time I went right to 215 from 195. Perhaps I wasted energy with the 205 attempt? hmmm

  Not great sleep and a bit sore ( no aspirin for last three days) so all in all it was a strong day . Just definitely not 'fresh'  ...
