290lb overhead press, excited for the future!

 Tested my current strength levels, on seated rear press today. Started on 100kg (2 sets of singles to warm up) before then going up 120kg. I didn't feel 120kg at all, making it much easier than last weeks effort. As such I jumped up to 130kg. I felt very confident and approached the bar with a relaxed disposition. 

130kg flew up, perfectly even. Was tempted to push for more, but 10kg improvement in a week is more than enough. 

I didn't want to tire my body. My Mrs has covid at the mo, and I don't want to make myself ill by burning the midnight oil too much. But I still wanted to hit side delts at least a wee bit. So I did a new exercise taught to me by my matey Skully Karlani. DB Discus. I used to be a discus thrower when I was younger, and it's nice to know that it must be like riding a bike, you never forget. Style felt smooth and the 9kg dumbell felt like a good choice. Overall I did 2 sets on each arm.

Thanks for reading my weights journal. Big Al 💪 🍺 🦖
