"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."

215lb press x 1, 220 x X,pistol practice, floor pushups
SO. DAMN. CLOSE.
All systems were go except for only weighing 172 (!). It was even warmer in the garage than it's been in weeks, which helped
But I had to take 215 lbs first as I missed that last week and have only done it once before. It was a 6 second effort and took just enough out of me I guess to keep 100 kg for another week
Both were solid grooves
Last time I attempted 220 I went straight to it after 205. that's what I'll do next week now that I've reclaimed the 215!
Then went down to 207.5 for 4 singles ( this was the slowest , and hardest of the attempts)
this was also the first workout that I did not miss a weight on the way up! Usually I screw up either 195 or 205 and have to take it over and skip it but today everything was good up to 100 kg!
