Military Press PR and 135 lb goal, belt squats, pushups, sled



Well that got done. A big goal of mine since I started over head pressing last year was to press plates, or  135 lbs. today it got done.
Being back on the WSB percentage program seems to have worked again as I hit the correct numbers on cue.

I had thought about being happy with a double with 125 as 120 was my old double pr but was secretly hoping for 130 but wasn't really thinking 135.

Especially after yesterdays PR ruck but it worked out just fine

Military press
stick x 5
bar x 5
65 x 3
85 x 2
105 x 1
125 x 2 pr
130 x 1 pr
135 x 1 PR!
95 x 5 x 2




a steady slow grind but if I'm in position I can grind for a long time on a press of almost any kind. and, of course  my shoulders aren't yelling at me

Today they weren't even though my left side first rib was out all day and rejected all my efforts to get it to settle in, until I started to train :)
My brain acting up

Belt squat
36  kg x 10  x 4

Man! my legs were tight and sore going in. took me three sets to warm up. last set was much nicer  and looser

Floor pushup
30 PR
25
20
 75 reps

these were easy. go figure

Sled
105 lbs x 250 ft x 4 laps

 Thought about going back to 5x5 for a hot second then my left shoulder  reminded me why I stopped doing them before. It doesn't seem to...
