Today went about as well as you would expect - which is to say, once again I have bombed on my Overhead Press. I barely made it to the third set before I dropped the final rep and then sets 4 and 5 were an utter disaster. Not only that, but my arms were in such garbage shape today that I couldn't even complete the back-off sets for the exercise.
It felt like a complete disaster. Hopefully this weekend when I go to attempt it again I'll be able to get further along. At least it'll be a Saturday so I'll be able to take my time and rest a lot in between sets.
Finally, I almost lost it on one of my squat sets today. Went down so far that the bar touched the safety pins and then tried to push it up and for a moment there I was wondering if I could. Super fucking scary :)
Shitty Barbell row is next. I totally expect to fail it like I did the Overhead press. I wish there was something I could do (other than taking steroids lol) to get past these road blocks.
