Going to hit some Bench and OH Press at some point. May work up to a 1RM on OH Press. We'll see... Hope you have a good day.

Strength: Upper Body
Bench
Warm-Up:
20x45, 5x135, 3x155
3(5x170), 2(3x180)
*Pause 3 Seconds at Bottom. Explode up.
*Rest as needed between sets
OH Press
Work Up to a 1RM:
*Rest as needed between sets
3x45
3x65
3x75
3x95
3x105
3x115
1x130
1x140
1x150, Lifetime PR 1RM
1x160, Failed
1x155, Lifetime PR 1RM
Comments: Allergies are absolutely killing me right now. I feel frickin' rough today. No energy.
Bench: Felt good for these. Which makes sense because that is a pretty manageable weight.
OH Press: First time I've gone for a 1RM in a while on these. My previous 1-5RM is 145 lbs.
I was honestly pretty shocked to hit the wall at 160 lbs. Still, happy with a new Lifetime PR.
Overall, my 1RM has increased by 30 lbs since January. I think those gains are going to be
harder to come by now though.
Well, I'll probably do next to nothing for the upcoming week and will likely do a Deload Week
after that. Then I'll be home, either for a while, or indefinitely so I can have a more regular schedule.
I'll be travelling with the family too but will keep checking in. Hope you have a good day.

Nice job on the PR's! Yeah, 170# is heavy. We're about even there. I tried 180# and got it eye level but...hey, at least I cleaned it. Nice job.

Today I did that squat metcon thing I made up. I worked up to 315# and back down. Did it all in ~27'. Had to do a bunch of driving around getting ready for mother's day. Don't forget it!

Thanks for the thanks earlier. Ha ha. 170 is heavy for you. 160 is heavy for me.  Good job on the metcon and THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for reminding me of Mother's Day. I remembered this year, but am generally really bad at that type of stuff. |

So while I was working out, Guy saw me post my videos from earlier and thought 3x180 on Bench looked a little easy. Via email, he challenged me to try 200. Unfortunately, I didn't get that email until after I was done and had already put everything away. So I declined. Well..... I was just driving home from the store. Windows down. Country song on the radio. Feelin' good. So I walked in the door and went for it. The challenge was 3x200 Paused. I got 5. Now I can rest knowing I did it.  Here's the proof. |

I was trying to say that I agree with you and I have kind of hit the wall myself. 170# is a hard grind. 160# is just a grind. At any rate, nice job. |
