A pretty fun day in the gym. This was my week of heavy singles with 5/3/1, so on my "joker" set, I decided to go for 160lbs. It came up so fast, I threw a belt on and added another 15lbs for a very clean PR match (though I think the last time I maxed press was in September and I tried 80kg several times and never came close).
Pictured here was maybe my only sticking point and the most I leaned back in the lift. I was so aggressive in my set-up that I didn't realize my hands were a little uneven.
I finished out my accessory work (dips and pull-ups) while I waited for Adam to roll in.
Finally getting the hang of the strict, dead hang, chest-to-bar chin up. I have yet to master this overhanded grip. But I'm working on it.
By the time Adam got there and warmed up, we didn't have a lot of time, so whereas I wanted to do 10 x 100m rowing sprints, we could only fit in 7, which was plenty.
I had Adam video one of my 15.9 sprints just because I thought it would be a cool thing to post and it ended up exposing some bent arms, a compromised extension on the finish of my pull and some rounding at the catch. Add it to the list of more stuff to work on.
Another good day of tracking my macros and calories. Ball parked my dinner, but think it's mostly right, a little over if anything.
Just under 1,800 calories for the day and feel sated and good. I'm really hoping this will positively affect cutting my weight down or else it will be just another annoying thing I've added to my routine and I will still be chubby.
