Good workout. So I’m having stretches of bad workouts, which are usually coinciding with the low rep sets in the cycle. The heavier PR weights are really beating me up I guess. I need to look and see if I’m doing them all during the same week and maybe stagger them. Not sure if that better then hitting them all back to back to back.
Worst 2 days of eating for me in a long time. Lots of junk, very little protein, low calories generally. May need another “free day” just for the me tal state, and then will get back on he straight an narrow.

Took a pic of my press grip the other day. Going to see if I can figure out how to embed it from Flikr. I widened my grip, then read a bunch on the site and got worried I went too wide, but looking at the photo I think i'm close enough to my shoulders to be within the general instruction. This width allows me to let the bar rest and not float. that change, plus a wider stance (squat width), have helped.
(edit: photo didn't work. will try again another time)

Good workout. Press felt good. I don’t think I go down far enough on dips. I stop before my upper arm is parallel to the ground. Love doing them and want them to be a part of my routine, but am not sure I should be since I can’t do full ROM. In the past I’ve always tweaked something in my chest or should when going all the way down.

Good workout. Nice little milestone on bench. Was tired tonight and the bad guy on my shoulder was trying hard to convince me to stop after bench. Felt tired and a little weak on the accessories but happy I got the entire workout in. Diet and rest have been bad since Saturday.
