1/2 Press Day...Max Effort focus
As I said before I am going to work in fat grips for the next few weeks since the gym I'm at doesn't have an axle bar. So here we go

Fat Grip Military Press 3x1@230 these are always done standing. I did these with a belt, my first time ever using a weightlifting belt. Different feeling and I need to get used to it. The belt I go as a present from my beautiful and talented girlfriend for Christmas. It's a Titan Toro lever belt.

Back off sets 4x4@205
Felt pretty good, probably had one rep left in the tank on each set which is what I was aiming for.

Behind the head press 3x8-10@155
I do these for the haters and also cause I love them.

DB Shrug 3x10-12@100
Gotta get dem traps

Neutral Grip DB press seated 3x12@60
If you want to press more, press more...so I did!

Triceps....a bunch of pull downs

DB Lateral Raise 3x10@40

TRX Scarecrow 3x6 slowwwww tempo

Excellent session today that kicked my ass. Left the gym very tired but pleased with my presses. Fat grips will be used on all overheads for the next 4-6 weeks and I am looking forward to see the progress I get as I get more comfortable with them. Since my gf is awesome and happens to be a massage therapist I was able to get some compression yesterday after my lift which helps a ton with soreness the following day. Don't forget I am hosting a Platinum level strongman contest through NAS this April! Hit me up for details. info@liftheavybehappy.com
