80 x 3
100 x 3
120 x 3

DB OHP - 35's x 12, 27.5's x 12, 20's x 15
Rear delts - 3 sets of 10
Kneeling push downs - 3 sets of 8-12

Deadlifts - need to sort these out, watching my videos back my shoulders are always a mile in front of the bar so need to nail this finally
Bench - always benched really close with my index finger pretty much where the knurling starts, so seeing as I have lanky long ass arms it makes sense to widen my grip to improve leverages and it seemed to go pretty well today just need to figure out the groove and just practice

Lat pull down x 3 sets

Squats felt the best they have in weeks, I think using a higher bar placement is working a lot better for me as I don't fold over as much and keep a better line in terms of balance feeling really confident at the moment with them

Training going pretty well at the moment especially squats they're feeling fast and no technique breakdown, wide grip bench always feels real fast the fast rep but seem to tire quickly. Front squat holds are horrible so going to keep doing them

All kinds of rows trying to find something that I actually feel it in the lats
Standing DB Curls - 20's x 5ea - 3 sets
Hyper extensions - BW x 2 sets of 20, BW + chain x 20

Considering I had awful prep for this session as I had hardly eaten and already done a load of treadmill work today it went surprisingly ok. Squats felt fine for 90% efforts, same with bench seeing as the most iv paused is 150. Read a lot of RTS articles lately so going to start encorporating the RPE in my work sets

Deadlift

Really tried to better my set up so instead of rushing it I sat at the bottom longer to get in a better starting position and pull my lats down more, was harder off the floor but top end set moved easy enough

215 x 1 @ 8.5
215 x 1 @ 9
170 x 5,5,5,5 - was meant to be deadlift with chains but I'm thick and couldn't figure out how to set the chains up so they kick in earlier didn't know how to shorten them
