| today highhang snatches bar x 5 40kg x 3 45kg x 3,3 wasnt pulling myself under the bar enough but still pretty smooth benching 60kg x 5 80kg x 3 100kg x 12 overhead press 60kg x 2 75kg x 2,2,2,2,2,2 pull ups bw x 5 +10kg x 10,10, 5 dumbell curls 12kgs x 15, 15 trying new set up on bench. wider grip, tighter set up and. feet turned out more. feels stronger but found losing form as reps went on. pressing muscles didnt give out but couldnt maintain the set up as set went in. overhead press was harder than i thought - think set my 1RM for estimating 80% too high. will stick with this though finding hitting my target kcals tough as often need another 300kcals come the end of the day - not going to complain though! | |||
