205 lb Press 1 x 4, pistol practice floor pushups



Rough day. Nothing went well and I guess I'm about due. Worst session in forever. Making too many changes and on top of that fighting off this crud that is going around it seems and that didn't help.
Went to bed thinking I would be sick in the morning but woke up feeling pretty good. Just a cough and some phlegm but nothing green but I didn't feel strong.

And, I wasn't. But messin' about with grip and heels and knee lock etc really through me off on top of all the other shit.

Didn't even try above 205, that was hard enough

Press
( closer grip. legacy shoes knee lock focus)
65 85 105 x 3
135 x 2
155 x 1 ( so so speed)
175 x 1 meh
195 x 1 ok
205 x Miss!
205 x 1 x 4
205 x miss
185 x 1 x 2 ( vibrams shoes, regular width grip)
195 x 1 x 2
135 x 5
155 x 5

Looking back over my videos ALL the best reps over 205 were done in vibrams. Guess I'll have to learn to stay locked as I hit my sticking point and just get better. enough fucking around. Even the unracking today was shite.

BUT warming up the shoulders from the top down was a winner

 This went VERY well almost all reps identical. Realized I get better drive AND minimize shoulder stress if I unrack it with more weight on ...
