I know, I was just being cranky. And besides, I don’t want to be measuring myself against the standards of “most people”.

Two days ago was some basic pulling. Yesterday was pressing. Not bad, not good. I failed the first attempt at 110, but cheated enough with the second attempt to get it up. DBs were good. Feeling a little better, but still some issues.

That’s a ton of pressing. I best you felt blasted after that. I’ve been struggling to regain my press from a couple years ago, but I’m shoulder pressing right after flat bench.

I actually left feeling like I was slacking a little bit.

Still feeling off, but not as bad. And then weirdly I smashed a single at 180. I think my short term plan is to do like the below, but with more volume and difficulty on the bulgarians. I had to stop short today because the boy had a headache.

Another not terrible day, although I dislike how heavy 110 kilo feels. Decent work overall. Still don’t have an actual plan.

Feel tired from yesterday, even though I did jack shit. Had an okay day anyway, but not spectacular.

Low sleep and low energy. The the basic work I wanted to do, but I can see that I am being a bit too lazy, need to do more total sets. 170 was very good, I am pretty please at the depth I think I am hitting.
