Re Pressing, how much arm work do you do? I’ve made gains this past 6 months after years of plateau and the main difference is that I’ve trained my arms way more than I have before.
Probably 6-8 half hearted sets of curls a week, along with some pull-ups and rows.

Tough start. My shoulders and elbows were really tight and it was tough getting through squats. I had to take a really wide grip which made it harder to stay tight for the working sets. Then when I got to bench the pain persisted.
I always go into Sheiko cycles with overshot training maxes. This time I felt like I selected conservatively but it looks like some things never change. Regardless it was a low performance day.
