Pressing sets were harder than expected. I guess its the heat and couple of days of sleep deprivation I faced. Still, went as planned.

Iām still pretty stoked about pressing 3x9x50kg, so Iāll be having standing press on a ābackburnerā for now: Iāll go for three sets with 52,5kg each time and I let the reps drop on which numbers they may. Perhaps that will lead me to 3x8-9x52,5kg eventually. Progressing in standing press is so slow anyways that any kind of precise planning seems really difficult.
Instead of standing press Iāll be focusing more on seated press and z-press -variations, which have lots of room for improvement.
Well, some time has passed by. I have been training, not just writing it up here.
Trainingās been good and Im on a vacation right now.

Squat has been really promising lately. My all-time bests on back squats are: high-bar with a belt: 10x150kg, without a belt: 10x140kg. My best front squat is an ugly 1x120kg. Front squatting 10 x 90kg with this clean technique will be a definite pr. ![]()

Im not familiar with the terminology when it comes to determining whether the seated press -lift is incline press, overhead press or steep incline press. When Im doing seated dumbbell presses, the back support is in its most steepest angle. This one is second steepest - calling it a steep incline press.

A pr-set long time coming. 10x55kg will be a true tester. It will take some time though that Ill take dips on that. Most likely next year.
I have been easing myself into snatching lately. Doing power variations is nice and not too taxing.
