8/2 & 3

8/2

Nothing much to report here. Just hit a bunch more sets at 230ish on squat and 135 on push press, working on form and explosion.

After a few days of lighter technique work, my squat felt much better. 315 eclipses my former high-bar squat PR of 285. Kept upright throughout the squat too - no tacoing. Push pressing was kinda meh b/c the legs were tired. Abs, biceps, and shoulder work were done afterwards as usual.
