205 lb press x 1 x 5, 185 x 2 x 3, pistol practice , floor pushups



Very solid one. Not great but solid. Groove was decent but timing was not quite right( go figure) I think I have to stay more upright after the uracking and layback  as I press

The key is definitely laying  back AS I press up ( not forward) and being tight as I do so, But it felt "right" and I'll take that
205 wasn't easy but the video is of the first set and they got better. And, after comparing a lot of other 205 lifts it was better( faster) than most.

The model is Tommy Kono
 this will take more practice but I know it's the best path. Just like the close stance hi bar squat it's not without it's issues but it is the best leverage for my bodytype, strengths and weaknesses I believe and I've tried almost everything

After those I did 3 sets of 2 with 185 which went very well so the groove held up

190 x 1 x 12, 210/225 static holds, 24 kg goblet squats, floor pushups 30, 20

 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 ...
