Hi SF community.
I would like to pick your brains on how pressing could be best incorporated along S&S.
I had been on S&S for over a year and after doing some tests I realized my press is worse than I expected. Doing get ups with 32 and 40kg I could only press 24kg for a 2RM. I pressed a 28kg for a single a year before, after ROP. My aim is to somehow bridge the gap and to be able to do 5x24kg once I close down Solid, so I could do ROP with it.
Now, the problem is I don’t have 20kg bell, been to stupid to sell it. I can do a dozen presses with 16kg.
For the last month I started doing a press day once per week with a sort of ROP light day format. Since it’s light I went over the top this week and with a 1-2-3-4-5, 1-2-3-4, 1-2-3-4, 1-2-3 I got overtrained as I had not in months.
Thus, what volume, format would you most recommend for presses in order not to jeopardize S&S itself?
