Push press:
225 x 5
255 x 3
280 x 0, 0, 1, 0, 0
• As with last time I didn't lockout, which I would count as 0 on other lifts, but I find that as long as the weight gets up there my press goes up, so it's a rep as far as what I need to accomplish.
• My push press form is awful. I had a tendency today especially (possibly because my lower body is still destroyed from squat day) to sink down and pause before trying to explode up, which always resulted in failure. Standing too wide made my explosion weaker, as well, because it took a shorter range of motion for it to become too deep.

Chins:
5 x 12
11
• So much better on my pec-tendons than pull-ups, although I still stop before my speed slows down too much.

Overhead press:
177 x 9, 7, 7
• Rather than try to grind my way to a rep PR I increased the weight and decreased the rest times to make an attainable record go by faster.

Swiss bar OHP:
125 x 13
85 x 15

Skullcrushers:
40s x 10

Spider curls:
50s x 10

Band pull-aparts:
50

Can't wait for UFC 168 tonight.
