11/16 – Incline Bench ME / Push Press ME

Another solid workout. Really trying to ramp the intensity up this week since next week is a deload. Inclines felt pretty well, couple singles at 305 and some more with 295. Not bad. Push presses felt strong despite sore legs/back from deads and fatigue from inclines. I feel like my push presses are ‘right there’ on the verge of a breakthrough. DB ‘spoon’ presses were a challenge. Nice unique pressing movement that really hits the tris and chest hard. Tried doing some pulldowns but the cable on the right hand stack snapped. Quality. Opted for single arm pulldowns then. No ab work today – they need a rest.
