Press 2RM

It was a short workout today with family plans starting early.  It was only long enough for Squats and Presses, but that was enough for a great workout!

Squats were supposed to be 3x3@310, but being so close, I couldn't resist going with three wheels.  Got 3x3--piece of cake.

Press 1RM of 180, with a failure at 182.5, was set back on May 1st.  Last week I did 180x3 and today I got 182.5x2!  I am very pleased!  I wanted to get 7 on my third work-set with press, like I have the last several Press sessions, but I barely got 6 up.  I was not satisfied so I waited 10 seconds and hit a single, then waited another 10 seconds and hit another single.
That made me feel a bit better.

No Dips or Shrugs, but that doesn't bother me--I had a great workout and a great day with my family.


6.20.13

Squats 3x3@315
Press 182.5x2; 152.5x6,6,6 (10 sec pause) 1 (10 sec pause) 1

So, if I am not mistaken, and no injuries or other unforseeables get in the way of me getting in every workout, July 22nd will see two very big PRs for me on Press: a 200 lbs. 1+RM, and 3x5@170 lbs.  I hope I did not just jinx it.
