220 x 1 x 2 sets!, 205 x 1 x 3, laterals, rear delts rev pushdowns

 Wow this went great. I was seriously nervous before this session even though I slept well and felt basically fine orthopedically. Seriously cold tho and it's been a year  since I had to press heavy while freezing lol

Bodyweight was perfect (175.0 at 4 am) and no excuses but warmups were, well, cold and slow

But I just kept thinking " Stiff Legs/X" and it worked well at getting me back under the bar at the launch

I also focused on taking the bar off with more weight on the torso but then settled into the weight on torso AND shoulders/arms- basically with whole body! this worked best

While the lockouts werent great and the second set was 3/4 it's been THREE YEARS  since I even attempted this and have done it only once

Very happy. The groove was right

Now just need to add in the third cue

Stiff Legs

X

Stiff legs

Now that I can basically remember how to get it started RE STIFFING the legs after the launch makes the lockout so much better. other wise the base is soft

Really  good stuff
