First time using a plate for ohp, 140 was a 10lb PR. First 3 reps felt good, although I could do a better job of keeping everything stable below the shoulders and not letting the bar path drift too far forward. 4th rep was a slight grind but I thought I would be able to get a 5th one up. I fought it for a while, but got stuck before clearing my head. Thoughts on trying 140x1x5 again next week or move up to 145?
Bench felt great. I really focused on keeping my back tight and I realized that I haven't been keeping it tight nearly as long as I could. Some sets when it would feel heavy I think I let the tightness go even before my first rep. Hopefully this revelation will lead to PRs and moving up to non jellydick weights.
Didn't have enough time to try out the db flyes or do abs, but I got a nice pump in...
