217.5 x X x 3, 207.5 x 1 x 3, Floor pushups, laterals



No excuses, should have made it but I also found one more piece of the puzzle while missing it.
Body felt great, mind was solid, legs were tired from the weekend but not in the way I used them in this so no excuse there either. Was focused on being more aggressive in the lift and that definitely helped me not over think it

But the one piece I didn't get til after the 217 attempts is that when all things else equal I cannot rush the lay back into the press. I have to 'pause' it.
When I try to bounce it always goes forward.  and or I get loose at the sticking point  even though the video of the last 207 press is rough I was beat to shit from heavy isometric holds and a lot of single up to there. But I didn't even figure it out ( Glenn did) til the last two sets!



The setup and drive/ hip is correct now I hope this pause  aspect finalizes the deal
