Shoulder press Deload/ PR test day
Bombed again , Strength has definitely dropped over the last 7 weeks . It’s to be expected though, sooner or later the leaning out catches up to you.
Shoulder press
Warm up
45x5
55x5
65x5
85x5
105x5
125x5
135> needed 12 for PR
135x8> I hit the rack on the 7th rep , definitely threw things off but I think realistically I would have only got 9 if that didn’t happen . So looks like the most strength was lost on the pressing movement over the last 8 weeks . All and all not terrible all things considered . I have leaned out a lot and I’m still getting use to my body at this weight so maybe the loss in strength is partially do to needing to relearn movement patterns .
