Not pushing hard at the minute, diet being off due to trying to ration, bit of stress also and just overall feeling low energy. Bit of back and bis though just to get something in.
Put a chair in front of you, or a stool- something that allows your legs to prop up at 90 degrees, and do reps with super slow negatives? Is that possible or would that not let you pull appropriately to keep the bar on the door? Could even add weight if you have a dip belt.
Thanks for the suggestions, the chair may be a good shout, will be much more controlled. I’ve done them with legs tucked towards chest or in an l sit, hits lats better but any jolty pull could see me with a broken coccyx!
Weather has picked up now and lighter evenings so back on my outside bar for now.
Here’s the issue, only door in the whole house I can get it on and due to the tiles in the bathroom there is only 5mm for the support bar to rest on. Any movement and its bouncing off!
Probably impossible to get hold of right now but for future reference, I have one of those that wedge between the door frame - it’s pretty solid and can use it in any door frame. I was worried it’d leave marks too but I haven’t had any issues. I think mine was from Argos and only about £10.
db shoulder press 90 deg
Thought I would look at my last recorded DC numbers for a few lifts over the next few sessions and see how much improvement I have made. First up 90 deg shoulder press. Rest pause.

3x12 @FlatsFarmer seen in your log and remembered how good they were. I looped a band through. pulling apart at the top felt pretty good!
