Cheers mate. You're right, a week off is nothing to stress about, it was just unplanned, that's all. Feels good getting back to it too.

Thanks gents. I've taken the shackles off by moving away from percentage based progression (Wendler 5/3/1). I still believe it has some merit, however, it also inhibits progress. It just takes forever to get anywhere and I know I can go heavier. I understand the idea of slow and steady progression, but some days you just have more in the tank.

Squat - 60kgx5, 80kgx5, 100kgx5, 120kgx4,3
Landmine press - 20kgx5, 30kgx5, 40kgx5, 55kgx5,5
Seated DB press - 20kgx12, 22.5x9,9,9
DB lateral raise - 15kgx10,10,10
Had a very physical training day at work today. Trained at work straight after finish, so energy levels were pretty low, which was very noticable in the squat. Anyway I'm glad I did it.
First time in a long time I tried any overhead pressing. Although very light weight, the seated db press felt completely pain free in the left shoulder. I would love to be able to do the military or behind the neck push/press again soon.

Had to laugh today. I'm glad I trained at home. I had a shocker with the dl. Dunno whats going on with it. I've lost heaps, but I'll keep pushing it. It'll come back.
Then, I bombed a max attempt on the bench. I got it half way up, and then oh-ooh. I got stuck under the bar for the first time ever. After worming out under the bar I composed myself and actually had a good workout. The last 10 bench singles were done on the minute. All the assistance lifts were supersetted push/pull.

Haha, well yes. You are right about attempting a max without a spotter. But in saying that, I'll probably do it again... My measly weights will never crush me as such, and I don't put the collars on, just in case I get stuck again ill just tip one side up and voila! Haha
