Adding pull-ups to chins because a good physical therapist recommended them for my shoulder/thoracic/PD woes.

Stout Pin Presses...That's right at my sticking point; impressive!

Stout Pin Presses...That's right at my sticking point; impressive!

Thanks. Pin Press is a satisfying lift, once your worksets get over your regular Press PRs.

I actually discovered I can pin press more when I "row" myself into the starting position. I hope that's not considered a cheat.

P 1.5: 45x3x2, 65x3, 85x3, 105x1, 116x3, 117x3, 118x3. I did the first 2 reps on one breath then paused at the top. I did the third with a stretch reflex at the bottom. I toggle a lot between different variations of doing the press, but that's because it seems so finicky to me.

SQ: 45x5, 100x3, 150x2, 200x1, 220x5x2

Lat pulldowns (pronated): 150x5, 100x9

[Charlocity2]

Summary highlights:

SQ: meh (continued). I thought my A7 shirt would like the bar in the wrong place (too high), but maybe I need it to lock the bar in the right place.

P: Now doing doubles, on one breath. Got up to a 127x2 PR, only 1 pound less than my meet PR for a single. It seems like once the first rep is locked out overhead, the second rep is cake, given the stretch reflex at the bottom.

Pin P: 135x2.

BP: continued good fortune with a wider grip, 166x3.

DL: once a week, triples first set and doubles second set.

Adding pronated lat pulldowns to pull-ups and chins.

Congrats on the Press progress!

Congrats on the Press progress!

Thanks. I feel like I make PR progress in cycles, not day to day or week to week. Maybe that's the definition of advanced programming, as opposed to novice or intermediate. I don't feel advanced...
