Pressin' Out Week 9. Day C.

sRPE @ 7

BW - 226

Press - 125X3, 3, 3 @~7

High Incline DB Bench - 55sX11, 8, 6 @10

Deficit Flexion Rows - 145X9, 9 @9/10

super-set with

Seated Leg Curls - X10, 8 @~10

Pushdowns - X9, 8, 7 @~10

Almost skipped this session because of schedule.  But also maybe a sign that overall stress (life, gym, etc.) is starting to get a bit much, and may need to look at a pivot.

If things are going well on Monday, I could try to chip my lifetime Press PR, and then pivot to the next thing.

Need to be better about doing Copenhagen Planks.  They just hit different than the adductor machine.

Wasn't feeling Seated DB Press today so switched to High Incline DB Bench.

Getting better acclimated to the Deficit Flexion Rows.  Still a ways to go.

Beat the log book on leg curls.

Felt like I got hit by a truck after Squats in the prior session.  Made everything today harder.  I'm super annoyed when this happens.  The only way I've found to really avoid it is to have frequent Squatting in my program, but that makes all my programs Squat focused, and I went through years of always having Squat be my best lift because of it.  Anytime I try to get away and try to really build up other lifts, Squatting starts to bury me.  But there I was again last night, starting to write out a frequent Squat program when what I really wanted to do was move on to Bench and Rows after this.  Oh well.
