I don't even know what to do with my press anymore. Deadlifts had trouble staying on my shins, but I managed to get all 5, which I wasn't sure about.6/15/2021So, just a side note here. I took my youngest son to the gym to do his workout, and just messing around, I was able to do one neutral grip chin up, and almost a second! I'm going to be messing with this more often. Felt good to be able to do a chin up. I have never done one before! https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com

DWx Posted June 22, 2021 Posted June 22, 2021 Looking good, Danielle! How's the press feeling now?Getting much better! Its a bit lopsided as after I messed up my left elbow a few years ago I can't quite lock out on that side. But generally much stronger.

bushido_man96 Posted June 24, 2021 Author Posted June 24, 2021 That was always my problem, too, Danielle. I'm weighing 245 lbs now, and it's the lightest I've been in some time. I'm only getting a few at a time, though.Could do with smaller increments but the smallest plate they have is 1.25kg. Depending on how next session goes might buy myself a pair of 0.5kg plates to take with me.I can't recommend enough to get some incremental plates. I bought a set some time ago, and it was a great investment, especially for pressing, and for training my kids.6/21/2021Strength TrainingSquats: 45x5, 135x5, 205x3, 225x1, 245x1, 300x5, 300x5, 300x5.Press: 45x5, 85x5, 115x2, 135x1, 151.5x3, 151.5x3, 151.5x3, 151.5x2, 151.5x2, 151.5x2.Deadlifts: 135x5, 225x3, 275x1, 295x1, 335x5.Neutral-grip Chins: 2, 2, 2, 2.Squat sets felt surprisingly good, until the last set, which just seems to be how the last set goes. Press dropped to sets of 2. Deadlift might just be a PR.6/23/2021Strength TrainingSquats: 45x5, 135x5, 205x3, 225x1, 255x5, 255x5, 255x5.Press: 45x5, 85x5, 115x1, 138x5, 138x5, 138x5.Neutral-grip Chins: 2, 2, 2.Assisted Chin-ups: 100x9, 100x7, 100x6, 100x6.I love Wednesday light day.

Squats going well, and I finally hit sets of 3 on my presses at this weight. Deadlifts, however, were bad. The first rep was a grind, and the second was stapled to the floor. I rested a bit, and then decided to really bear down and pull again, and it was a slow grind, and I should have stopped there, but I pushed another rep. Now, I've got really bad pain at the bottom of my back to right of my spine. Hurts, hurts, hurts. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
