10 x 1 - 24kg. Better, once I controlled my frustration.

It’s the press to sitting position, I cannot do it correctly on my left side. Annoyingly, when I saw the SFG the problem didn’t repeat itself!

Getting stronger each time now, the left TGU being the issue this past month or so now seems to be as strong as the right again, although my transition from press to tall sit still requires work, my right leg still jumps as I move from the floor press to the sit, this I put down to the fact I’m not rolling through properly. Still happy though!
