Went on a run yesterday. Just one sprint up a hill and then about 30 minutes of jogging. Been pretty consistent with cardio.

Strict press
175 x 5
205 x 5
230 x 4, 3
Couldn't get the 5th, but definitely not unhappy with 4. Changed my belt to the smallest size I've ever adjusted it to. Waist is slim.

Landmine press
45+25 x 10
45+35 x 10
45+45 x 10, 10, 10
I thought these up on my own but they exist of course. Don't know what their established name is. I anchored the bar against a wall and pressed with each arm. Doing my best to simulate an incline machine after I saw Savickas post himswlf using one on instagram and giving it a lot of credit for his overhead power. I like them. My shoulders need a break from the boring but big set-up. My right shoulder is developing some pain when I barbell press overhead while my left has healed.

Lying dumbbell rows
125s x 10, 12, 12, 12

Meadows rows
13,
Using the same 90 lb stack from the presses.

Neutral-grip pull-ups
15

Keg curls
160 x 20

Dumbbell flyes, curls

  1. Always wanted to try out those landmine presses. Heard good things. Hope you see some growth out of them.

  2. I'd prefer the incline machine so I can use more weight, but I can tell I'll get good benefit out of these. Made my abs feel it.
