Mixed Bag

Mixed bag of lifts lately. Squat and overhead press are going very well, deadlift and bench press not so well, but not badly either.


Squat: 520 lbs. x 2 sets x 3, 525 lbs. x 3

Bench press: 340 lbs. 3x3, 360 lbs. x 2, 375 lbs. x fail

Seated overhead press 215 lbs. x 3 sets x 5, 225 lbs. 3x3, 245 lbs. x 1 (tied all-time PR)

Deadlift 500 lbs. x 3 (missed a session due to travel)

Never managed anything like 520x2sx3 on squats before, so am pretty happy. On the other hand, my bench press strength has gone to shit lately (but overhead pressing has never been better). Maybe it's time to start focusing on the OHP and put the flat bench press on the back burner.

Back still feels a little unstable during deadlifts. I'm still watching out for any twinges.
