20 Devil’s Presses w/20lb DBs

Notes: I genuinely don’t remember the last time I’ve been this sore. My whole body just aches to the touch. The 10x10 deads are shinning through that post night shift fatigue, and it made the first set of presses tough, especially since I’ve quit warming up on them, but we still made it through. Last 3 sets were tough, and I definitely did some “bow and arrow” presses for the 10th rep of the 9th and 10th set. Once again: MAY have been the right call to go for 141 on this at the start, but given how much my schedule changes and I have to be ready to press at my worst, this worked well enough. The Devil’s presses were a new add on, but I figured I had time to get in a bit of micro conditioning.

With that, the last of the Deep Water workouts are done. Still gotta get in benching and conditioning to finish out the program, but I’ve conquered beginner. Not near what it was the first time, but that’s to be expected. Absolutely grew from this.

Haven't done any check ins, but took one today.  Still lean after a 2lb ribeye

PM WORKOUT (1430)

Axle Grace Echo

30 reps in 3:08

15 reps in 1:46

7 reps in :38

Notes: Lots of technical issues on the first round.  Plates kept landing off the mats and I was pressing into the garage door motor a bunch.  Must not have had things in the right spot in the garage.  Got the conditioning effect I was looking for, and that's what matters.
