Tony got beyond frustrated with my shitty form and drilled me for about hour straight with corrective moves and form cues and completely revamped my press and re started’

135 for 2 sets of 15
185 for 2 sets of 12
205 for 13 reps. A PR by 1 rep after a metric fuck ton of Volume cant wait to try going heavy with new style.

Neutral Wide Pull Down:
100 for 12
120 for 10
140 for 10
160 for 10
180 for 10

220 for 10
240 for 8
250 for 6

Tony looked at my form from about 6 different angles and found that I was setting up great, coming down and tucking my elbows good, and then as I pressed off my chest the bar would start to gradually come back to my face, then my elbows would go from a tucked to a really weird flared out like hell motion, and would force my shoulders and triceps to take over the entire motion but, in a completely piss poor fashion. We then moved my hands out a good but going from a thumbs length from the inside knurling to a pinkies on the rings. This is allowing me to get much much tighter in the bottom and flare out so that when I flare my elbows out I am able to actually keep them in a advantageous position. This lead to a rep PR with 205 after literally 2 and half hours of Bench work.

Today was a insane confidence booster. My Previous Best Wrapped Squat record with 405 was 6 reps. Today I hit 9… without wraps… against Bands. Then even after being totally smoked I worked up to 20 pounds off my best ever Squat but with bands and it was fairly easy.
