Exceptionally tough workout today. One of those days where I did not want to be in the gym. Very little focus, tired and sore everywhere, lots of sand. Push presses were killing my wrist today, possibly from switching to using a clean grip this training cycle, so instead of hitting 5 doubles I just hit a double and a set of 5 and called it good. Going to skip overheads on Friday to let my wrist recover, or do whatever it needs to do. The wrist affected my paused bench quite a bit – was not able to hit the 4 doubles at 310 that I wanted, settled with just 2 doubles at 300 and did some extra rep work. Kept inclines light, as well as flyes – focused on low rests (10s between sets). Deads were OK. Wanted to shut down during warmups but I hit everything on schedule in the end.
