I have a shoulder workout in the morning…will see what I can do now. Guessing it will be between 200-220# I’ve never prioritized MP much before, but after reading Thib’s posts relaying that his bench press always went up along with it, it might be worth focusing on improving this lift dramatically. I’d like to cap my delts more anyway.
Ok, I’m in too. Give me a year and I think I should be able to do this. I can’t even press 135 yet.
One more baby step…
265X1 - PR +5#
I’ve got some work to do. Saturdays workout did come just one day after a heavy chest day, which had left my anterior delt and triceps a bit sore, but still it was all I could do to get 200# for one rep. I expect all my lifts to go up quickly again as I’ve been slacking on the gym all summer in favor of outside activities like golf.
Nice work LittleStrick…I’d say that looked easy enough I suspect you’ve got another 10# on tap.
Thanks, SeaHag. Maybe a couple more pounds. Still too far from 300, though.
Doing MP a day the day after bench would annihilate me. No way I could press much. My shoulders take too much of a beating.
GAME ON !!!
Yes sir! I figure that someone will hit it next Summer…lol.
I hit 210 last night, a 5 lbs. PR. Then I pinned 225 to my chest like a prom-night corsage. So I’ll have to settle for 55 lbs. behind the medium-sized frame of LittleStrick.

Thank you! That is correct…MEDIUM…lol.
55# until your next go at maxing. I don’t know if you are like me, but once I get right up to max, I only get 1 shot at it. I am good for 1 set of 1 rep, then I am shot for the day.
Congrats on the PR!
Just started a new job this week so I won’t be able to train MP due to fluctuating schedule (as I’m coming on someone else decided to quit) but definitely next week!

Congrats on the PR, Jack. Things are starting to inch forward in here.

Skip and Jack, I was just predicting the future. I’m still not close.
