Shitty bench session, so I broke my ass on OHP and Vertical Pulling to make up for it. Was looking for just 4 reps on the bench, but my arms were shaky as hell, and the work sets all felt heavy. At some point, I may just have to bite the bullet and dedicate a month or two to trying to improve this lift. It's either that or drop it all together in favor of the stuff I really like to do, but that seems like the cowardly way out.
Decided to start doing ladders of wide-grip pull-ups to see if improving that movement will provide more volume and intensity to help maintain/improve my chins. So I'll probably do this low-medium rep pull-ups followed by medium+ reps chins progression for awhile. It also helps balance pulling against the additional pressing I've added on this day.
The gym was closing in 5 minutes, and I let that be my excuse to skip abs again.
