"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."

225 lb press attempt, floor pushups, laterals
Not that great an attempt in reality for a lot of reasons but basically just not the day. Lot of social media distractions all weekend and wasted a lot of energy on stupid arguing. Not the best mental prep
Then put the bar on the wrong side of the tape and my foot setup wasn't right even up to 195 so I took that twice. Just a bit flat all day.
Still a bit anticlimactic since the 100 kg so I'm not beating myself up about it
I think the tapes might be too much a distraction causing me to lose my feel, my connection to the setup
Did NOT get my hips forward enough that's for sure looking back at the tape and I flexed through my knees instead an that's a non starter
But now I know
I also think I might need to make smaller jumps 225 might not be the same as 220 even though it's just 5 pounds more. It IS the stinking press don't forget and plays by it's own rules.
And I have never been in this territory
Perhaps
