Military Press


Pulled out the oly racks and did some presses today. Good stuff, and it really gave the lower body more needed rest.

Military Press
45 x 5
45 x 3
55 x 3
65 x 3
75 x 3
85 x 6

Dip Machine
"6" x 10
"6" x 10

Lat Pulldown
105 x 10
105 x 10
105 x 10
105 x 10
105 x 10

The pulls didn't feel as productive as last week's was. I know I wasn't contracting the latissimus correctly; this is something I hope to do better next week.

Triceps Extension (rope pulley)
60 x 10
50 x 5, 40 x 5
40 x 9

Pure form on this one. I didn't feel embarrassed in the slightest that the weight was low. The reps were quality, and I felt the work get done. A good day for the press!
