1 mile run - 9:30

Used the steep fixed incline bench today.  So  much more like an overloaded front press than the shallower bench.  Hoped to get 5 reps on the top set, but 3 was a grinder, but projected higher than my previous session on this particular bench so all good.

I hadn't done any rowing for a few weeks, so I didn't even try to meet the standard from my last DB session, which was 55X25.  Instead I just took 55 up to 20 on the top set using really controlled reps, and feeling the muscle pull.

Worked up to a new top set on leg curls, 75X15.

Continuing to increase the volume on the chiropractor crunches.

Went for a slightly relaxed 1 mile run afterwards for the hell of it.  2 minutes off my best time, but no big deal.
