best pressing session in a while. Plate rattle at top of worksets, etc...
S2: may have been 6 reps
Shirtless. Wasn't sure about belt on skin. Worked out OK (since you're all wondering, I probably don't look as good as former forum participant "gilchrest")

7 min between sets. Supposed to be 235x5x3. 2nd time failing.
Finally slept last night - but probably not enough to help.

1st time under 230 in 3yrs. A fair bit of water, but WTF. Now, if I was only deadlifting.......

S3: Last 2 reps less than pleasant.
As a reminder, the odd weights are because I'm using a cheap hex-nut bar that I leave out in the Stables on the cobbled together press rack through the heat, humidity, fog and cold.

Donated blood Monday and "amazingly" I still have antibodies after 10 months. Covid in Nov. Antibodies at the end of Mar, May, Jul & Sep. No known financial incentive for the blood bank to produce a false positive antibody test.
This session should have happened Wed.

3rd time not hitting target. However, this went better than expected as I was talking myself out of completing each set. If press keeps moving, I don't mind sitting at this weight a couple more times.
