Yeah, so, I didn't do anything during my time away for 2 weeks. Well apart from eat and work late. Couldn't have seen that happening right?!
Coming back and hitting the gym, I was actually very motivated to go. Wasn't a struggle, but I sure did feel the body ache afterwards, which lasted for a week. It was only today I felt normal again and breezed through my squats - 67.5kg.
BUT, overhead press i stalled AGAIN. Same thing, completed 3 sets of 5 reps, on the 4th set, could only manage 3 reps, and the the 5th, only 2 reps.
Was I not resting enough?
Well next workout is the last chance I will get to push through it before I de-load. In a way, perhaps its better to de-load, work on form a bit better, can only make me stronger. Reading around found stalling on OHP is quite common and at this weight, so that's a bit of a relief, but by 2 weeks I want to get past it.
I tried to do some dips, something wrong, can still only manage 3. Maybe I'm just too shattered, maybe its because I've increased weight slightly, or maybe I'm still a fucking weakling. But I think instead of doing dips/ chin ups/ push ups as if I feel like, I'm going to make it a part of my routine - no excuses. Do as many as I can to failure. No where near any form sets and reps for this shit yet.
So couple of new goals now to keep me going; OHP break through and body weight exercises.
Let's get it on.....
ps man my belly is getting bigger......this shit better work....
