    That video is a good one. I've got to master no-handoff benching. At the weights I lift, I should be able to do it myself!

    Went O.K. Some of the pauses weren't very crisp. Probably work out Wed/Thu, then Fri/Sat off.

    Overhead press

    45x5x2
    70x5
    95x3
    120x1
    140x1
    159x2x3
    (rest: 6 min.)

    Halting Deadlift

    135x4
    225x2
    275x1
    315x1
    350x1
    385x5
    (rest: 10 min.)

    The press doubles were slow, but will go for 160 next. Haltings weren't bad (no pause at the top). Seemed like they stayed on the shin better/engaged lats better, except for the last rep, which was loose (Salt-N-Pepa was playing in the gym, what can I say).

    So you're saying that there was a bit of booty shakin' going on with that last rep? That can be the only explanation, because that's what happens whenever Salt-N-Pepa is playing in this house.

    I am glad I didn't comment as that one went right over my head. Funny!

    We had 80s/90s dance mix going on in the gym yesterday. Topping it off with Salt-N-Pepa was, shall we say, a little distracting--like many, classic power chords are my preference for motivation and work set focus.

    This is more along the lines I was thinking. I would not last past the first day at most gyms probably.

    95x3
    115x1
    130x1
    147x5

    Pin press is O.K., unless you get one out of the groove. Overall, went fine. Not a lot of pauses on the 3rd squat work set (more in hips)--tiring, but kept it together. Back Sunday, for another shot at the 420 deadlift.

    Limited time in the gym today, so went right to the deadlift. A friend counted to make sure I pulled long enough--and indeed it did not come up right away. Overall, O.K. Will drop one pressing day this week to make up the missed bench.
