(In-)Consistently Simple

21/7/22 PTTP
Sumo DL @75kg 5,3,2
BB side press @15kg 5,3,2
FC twist @15kg 5,5,5
Ab wheel @knees 4,4.

4 reps/set of ab wheel is pushing it. Better to do more sets of 3.
 
Few months ago I was chasing the number in Push-ups, doing hundreds of them daily, which eventually lead to an injury. Now I do two to three sets of 15-20 reps every morning, but trying to perform every and each rep with perfect form. And what I can say, it's challenging.
 
23/7/22 PTTP
Sumo DL @ 77.5kg 5,3,2
BB Side press @17.5kg 5,3,2
3x3 ab wheel @knees
Last rep of 5&3 on LHS were a grind. Thinking I'll stick to a 3 step step progression and see if I can do 20kg in a few days.

I find that I come unstuck when I complete the number of reps I've been aiming for and think to myself "that felt really easy, let's do 1 more". I'm working on ingraining the habit of finishing the set as planned and then considering additional sets for the next session. Sometimes it works, sometimes not so much.

AM
3x S&S warm up, Halos@ 16,8,16, GS@ 16,16,24kg.
Ab Wheel@ knees 3,3,3

15:30 PTTP
Sumo DL @80kg 5,3,2
BB side press @ 17.5kg 5,3,2.
FC twist @20,20,17.5kg.

FC twist will stay @17.5kg for a while. Too easy to muscle through with 20kg and not hit the obliques as much.

Loving how bulletproof I'm feeling after a session.

4-5 pistol squat singles either side on rocks at beach with heel slightly elevated.

Pleasantly surprised at my ability. Quad strength has improved recently, now the only thing holding me back from doing them is ankle mobility.

Progress, I should capitalise on it.

1.5xBW (66.5kg) deadlift and it went up! Struggled on last rep @90kg, not sure if it's because I got up from a nap before 1st night shift. Pretty f'ing stoked but!

Not heaps of volume, but man what an ab workout, I thought I was generating tension before but I guess I wasn't.
