“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” – Theodore Roosevelt

me press

press 20kgx10, 31kgx5, 38kgx3, 45kgx2, 51kgx1

phone died. mental calculation is a bitch.

press 57kgx1, 60kgx1, 63.5kgx1, 57kgx1, 60kgx1

face was exploding on the 63.5kg rep. mad struggle once bar clears head. i'm thinking its a shoulder/t-spine mobility + weak shit triceps issue.

seated db press 28kgx6x4

big back arch at the top range. should be the mobility issue.

tricep press down or whatever its called 57kgx6x4

seated cable row 88kgx6x4
