Perpendicular to the Surface of the Earth

[ithryn]

This was the actual pin squats. Lots of elbow-wiggling going on, I need to work on that.

[ithryn]

I did work out, just didn't log here. Here's what I've done recently:

_____
Floor press:
- 255 x 1, 230 x 3 x 3
Floor press amrap:
- 150 x10, x12, x8
Dumbbell rows, cable pressdown, side delt raises

(I think my bench PR is still 255. But now my close grip bench max is 255. And my floor press is 255. Guessing I should probably retest a regular bench PR soon.)

_____
Paused squats:
- 275 x 3 reps, 8 sets, 60 second rests (I died.)
Sumo deadlift:
- 315 x 3 reps, 8 sets, 60 sec rests (surprisingly wasn't too bad, quite invigorating actually)

_____
Paused bench:
- 200 x 3 reps, 10 sets, 60 sec rests
Press 135 x 5 x 5
chinups: 50 total reps. PR: I got one set of ten in there!
dips, shrugs

That brings us to yesterday:

Congrats! And I love the hold at the top like, "I got you, press. I got you."

Thanks, lol. The hundos are crazy. They're almost too heavy to actually pick up and manipulate and load, which is probably a good thing, so it's kinda funny having them. I kinda can't believe someone came up with them in the first place. I wonder if there's a history on that.
