That press is a PR for you isn't it? Very impressive either way. Way to get back in there after a miss.

Yes, IW, that press is a PR for me by 10 lbs or so.  I just missed the lockout so that gave me a lot of confidence. A sturdy torso really helps in doing military presses, IMO.

Winter 2009 Training
Mesocycle 4 - Week 2
Workout A1
Beginning Thoughts:
I woke up early yet again - on a fucking saturday of all days ang got this workout in. I also got a haircut after the workout  Workout:
Torso Rotations:
5 lbs x 10 reps x 3 sets
Pretty difficult. My first time doing these.
Overhead Squats:
100 lbs x 3 reps x 5 sets
I wasn't feeling too good today.
SSB Good Mornings:
185 lbs x 5 reps
205 lbs x 5 reps
225 lbs x 5 reps
235 lbs x 5 reps
245 lbs x 5 reps x 2 sets
I hope I got my form down right this time...Video to come.
Keystone Deadlifts:
225 lbs x 5 reps x 3 sets
Really light: I had to leave for a friend's birthday lunch and had to make this quick.
Chin-ups:
BW x 3 reps x 3 sets
Pretty sad to only get in such little volume!
Braced Dumbbell Squats:
20 lbs x 10 reps x 3 sets
Pretty hard. I'm gonna try a different variation next time to make this harder. Videos:
Torso Rotations, Overhead Squats and SSB Good Mornings:
Overall Impression:
Decent workout. My tendon hasn't hurt in a week now. I think I am gonna try pistols tomorrow and some ab work. Maybe even some pull-ups or chin-ups (since I did such few today). I hope it has healed. I am gonna continue this "program" for another week and then mostly go back to my regular type of training.
I hope everyone has a good weekend!

Thanks, Pity.
Those Deadlifts were REALLY hard.
I hope I break the 405 barrier at some point  That would be sweet.

Haha if you want to break 405, all you have to do is pick it up because that's definitely less than your max.
Lookin good.
