24 Minutes of Stretching

Comments: Pretty good lifting. First couple of singles on log press it felt like my skull wanted to escape my scalp. 255lbs went up pretty good but 265lbs was not to be today. Probably should have tried for 260lbs instead of 255lbs. Finally got more than a double on heavy log presses from the rack. Still need to work on it. Incline presses I haven't done in a while (due to frustration) but they were feeling good. I didn't realize until 210lbs that I was using 10lbs more than I had planned. Everything was going well, until 240lbs that is. The sticking point is like a force field once I hit it and it sucks. I gave it another shot and I was much closer to a second rep on that attempt. I will beat it. This was the best incline has felt for me so I am making progress at least. I made up for it a little by upping the weight for rows to 300lbs. I ache, rest should do me some good.
