6/11/13 - upper & hammer

Training#1 @ 420a

Push press up to 225x3, add belt 275x1, 315x1x3
Strict press 225x3, add belt 235x3, 245x3, 255x3
Bench up to 365x1, add slingshot 365x3, 365x4
Ring dips 3x10
Band pushdowns 3x20

I really don't like adding the belt so soon on my ohp work but my low back was extremely tight still from yesterday's big lower session. The ohp work destroyed my triceps and I nearly missed the 365 bench. Added the slingshot and it still felt heavy. Dips were ok, band pushdowns were the nails in the coffin. I'm exhausted.

Training#2 @ 1215p

16# hammer x16-18, best 137, avg 135, only 2 under 130

Getting more consistent. Focusing on pushing the ball away from me and out to my right side then getting relaxed and getting as fast as I can. I feel like I can get faster, but I'm just not there yet. Need to take some reps with the 20# hammer as well as the 14# hammer to work on strength and speed a bit more. Overall still very happy with hammers considering the incredible soreness from the last couple days training. Stones and wfd tomorrow and a much needed off day from the gym.
