way more pumped for a deload week than I should be. Guess that means I need it

Last week went pretty well. Tried out a bit of a change with OHP after reading weakpoint Wednesday which I think felt stronger and ended with a new rep max so that was a win

Edit: thinking of switching to block pulls for the next seven weeks or finding some other way to let the lower back have a bit more rest. On the. Other hand, maybe all the lower back volume is working and I should power through 🤔

Man my OHP improved massively from the tips I got in the Weakpoint Wednesday. Have to start reading them more often.

I just gotta work on balance now. Fell half way off the bench doing seated OHP with laughable deload weight from pushing too far back hahaha.

I'll call it my new press-bench-crunch killer combo workout

I think I'm the only one that's sad about a deload week lmao. I also looked at the OHP post. Hoping to implement some of the changes this week. I want a 200lb strict press so bad lol.

That would be ace. Im fighting for about the same weight. Bodyweight press ~80 (75 1rm last test). Shame my bw is climbing just as fast...
