  • Push Press: 225*1 240*1 250*1
  • Unilateral BB T-Bar Rows: 205*1 180*2 -forgot to add bars weight in..again
  • Landmine Laterals: 70*2
45 minutes

Good session, bracing my core really helps on push presses.  I just started really focusing on it to aid my squat, but I wanted to see how much it carried over to other exercises. I was quite surprised, apparently my bracing had not been very good before this.  Definitely something to look into for others out there reading this; your ability to transfer power through the floor is a key component on any lift, and if your core is allowed to go slack then the force you generate from the floor ends there pretty much.  

Also, how on Earth do I keep forgetting to add the weight of the bar in on the unilateral rows...I meant to start with 160 and didn't realize til after what I had done...again...for the 5th time.
