Press 165 x 3

Great little workout today! attitude was good, had fun, kicked ass.


Started with press. Warmed up a bunch, hit the bar for a slew and then 95 for a bunch too, trying to get a little bit of a pump before moving on to my work sets. Then moved on to 135. Kept my grip a tiny bit narrower today. Hit 135 for a triple, then 150 x 3, then moved up to 165. Did really well today! Triple was easier and faster than pressing has been lately! Really happy about that. After, backed off to 150 and hit it for a long pause triple, then hit 135 for a long pause triple on the 3 mins. All felt really good.

Next up, Yates rows with 175. Did 4 sets of 12 on the 2 minutes. Felt okay, a little less focused than ideal but not bad.

Next, had a lot of fun benching. Loaded up 175 and hit it on the 3 minutes - I was doing max sets, but put a cap at 10 reps (don't do any more in a set if you hit 10) and 5 reps (don't do any more sets if you get 5 or less). So, I hit it for 10, 8, 6, and finally 5 reps. Felt pretty good! Happy with that 175 x 10 without any sort of benching warmup.

Finally, did some fun bb stuff to finish out the workout. Hit a bunch of sets of curls, plate raises, and tricep pushdowns just to get a nice pump.

Overall, workout felt good. Felt strong, looked good, had fun! need to keep up the good attitude, focus, and just keep at it!
