160 lb Press 5x5, 48 kg belt squat, floor pushups, laterals



This went well but even more important, Glenn figured out what I was doing wrong on my descent on the press that's been causing problems ( and probably why I missed the fifth set of 5 with 170) -  I've been coming forward with my torso as the bar descends!

And I distinctly remember ( now) the feeling of being back the whole time for the 5 reps when they were so easy. Staying in the incline position. Just fell into an old, bad habit but this really is going to help.

I thought I just had to drive my hips forward more but I couldn't seem to but this puts me back into balance.

Have to go a bit heavier on wednesday though, up to 125 I think to get enough resistance to test this out. Also I think I'm going to go 5x5 there too, just light

 Thought about going back to 5x5 for a hot second then my left shoulder  reminded me why I stopped doing them before. It doesn't seem to...
