Wasn't really feeling it this afternoon/early evening TBH...but had an irresistible urge to go and lift something relatively heavy, hehe.

So nipped out for a late one.

2 x CFWU

then

Squats: 5/60kg | 5/62.5kg | 5/62.5kg | 5/62.5kg | 5/62.5kg
Getting better.

Still sh*t though.

97% of my BW, next week I will up it to 65 and then at least be squatting over BW for reps, lol. :rolleyes:

*lets out faint cheer*

Felt like something clicked on the last couple of reps of the last set...and it wasnt my knee :lol:

No but seriously, really exploded up with my legs on these reps, using my core to keep my upper body as upright as possible.

I do get the feeling that its a technique thing to an extent, as well as a strength thing that is holding me back on these.

Once I get my squatting up to scratch, so much else will follow.


Shoulder Press (Military): 5/42.5kg | 5/45kg | 3/45kg | 4/42.5kg | 5/40kg
Finding my weight on this one tonight - not done shoulder pressing at this rep range for a while.

So they are kind of PBs, but more like benchmarks TBH.

70% of BW - next short term target is 48kg, which will be 75%.

I like 5x5s. Its a rep range that taxes me appropriately :D
