Well considering my bench performance I'm not too surprised that my military press wasn't quite up to snuff. arg

Lunch time work out so I had to get in and out quick... I was really nervous about this lift since I missed it last month. Damn happy about making it. The whole gym knew about it too. I was not quiet about it. ha

Feeling pretty damn good right now. Two new maxes this week.

Rowing - Steady State

I've learned to put on a show or something on the laptop and rowing isn't so fricken boring. Stll not my favorite activity however.

I went slow on this workout cause I managed to get a nail stuck into my wrist this weekend so it's pretty sore still. Fortunately no veins or tendons were hit but I'm on some antibiotics to clear up a bit of infection.

Weight is sky high. I'm on a round of antibiotics so I think that is why. One of the possible side effects is water retention...

By the numbers this puts me at a best ever theoretical max for bench. Though these higher rep lifts I don't trust the calculator as much. Anyway, it's good to see some progress regardless.

Today I tried moving my grip in about an inch for bench. It felt a little weird but also felt like I could grind out more reps. When I bench a bit wider it feels like I just would get stuck immediately. So maybe I'll work with it like this for a while.

I was totally gassed from dips and my pull ups suffered majorly.

Glutes were starting to ache and so I called it a bit short to hopefully save some for squats.
