195-215-205 First Heavy day of new Kono Press, wt pushups, laterals, hammer curls

 Well a mixed bag for sure. Given than my  right hip was locked up most of saturday ( better than friday but  not "right") and then Sunday it switched to my lower back with sciatica pain  reminescent of the bad old days the fact I could press anything at all today was great.

Felt pretty  normal, actually good, going into the  workout then pretty much forgot the most basic idea of the kono press, which is all three parts move at the same time

I locked the knees pretty well but then overly  focused on just driving the bar back  and keeping the legs locked instead of driving all three parts FROM TENSION INTO MORE TENSION!

That's why  it flew off my chest but stalled at 3/4 up.

Basically did the old technique with better locked knees. But too vertical at start and slow hip drive. Wednesday  will be better

195

205
then went to 210 but no video which was 'ok' then this 215 x 7/8
then down to 212.5 which I missed out in front then this make
then 210 
these are not bad considering how out of position ( the power bow) I am at the sticking point. 
I missed one of the above 205's out in front

Also, elbows are too vertical. Just a bit more in front

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 ...
