Shoulder Press

Workout 28 October 2009:

Shoulder press, seven sets of three reps

Results: 105-115-125-125-130-130-132.5lbs
Previous best: none

I wanted to do a heavy lift day and stress some muscle groups I didn't work earlier this week doing squats and pull-ups. I'm actually reasonably pleased with today's results since I haven't gone heavy overhead in awhile. My previous best for a one-rep max shoulder press is 145lbs, so being able to do a set of three reps at 132.5lbs is good. I probably could have hit 135lbs, but decided to ease back a touch, especially since I now have a pair of micro (1.25lb) plates that I wanted to use.
