It’s funny you think I put the beers aside at any point.
I am legit worried about my press. Kinda the only thing I care about. Have to figure out how to get it up to a BW press.

Funny how that works. I don’t care but I can’t walk away…

Gonna try and follow this log just because of the awesome new title. No way I’m gonna catch up 3000+ posts though.
To be fair our judo-squat-boxing bud did post a video of some heavy squats, why exactly did he get banned?

In which case I’ll just apologize in advance for the poor content here.
Shoulder day. This was the day I was most worried about, because the press is the one I care about the most. 70 for a deuce was a little better than expected, although the second rep was a Relative Perceived Simo (RPS) of fucking 2. Still, I wasn’t even sure I could push 65, so I am fairly pleased.

Also, MUs really are a mind fuck. I don’t think any other movement messes with my head like these do, except for perhaps very heavy deads.

Loving the new log title mate. What is the focus now the gyms are back?? Back to some serious strength work or work on performance and the martial arts ?

Muscle ups and HSPU, those are masterful movements. Are they a major part of your routine or do you take 'em for granted and just throw them in for fun?

I should get some rebound gains to improve strength, but general focus is on upper body (relative) strength and general athleticism. No real martial arts, but probably some pretend martial arts. Or just conditioning, really. Will still have to run at least a minimum amount.
MUs are a major part. Or they would be if I didn’t currently suck. HSPUs have traditionally been “for fun”, but I think I have been underrating them as a good movement for upper back musculature. Will probably do them as a supplement.

Litte bit of this and little bit of that today. Still trying to figure things out, which is just a tactical way of saying I absolutely suck at pretty much everything. But oh well, I enjoy being back at it and will increase the workload over time.

Dips looking good still.

Well, except for the part where I should be able to do about double the reps at each of those weights.
I’m sure that won’t be long…

Why is the leg press in pounds? I don’t like it.

First read this and thought I saw 9 reps per set, got very excited.

I feel we’ve been over this already. If you like, I can just lazily convert everything back to kilo? Feel like I would be cheating myself, everyone knows pounds are way more impressive.
Mate…I was in a public place.

It’s the taking part that counts though, right?
