Shoulder Press PR

7 rounds of 1 rep shoulder press

The last time I did this I hit 75#. Then on September 26th, I did 5 rounds of 3 reps and was able to do 2 reps at 75# and then failed on the 3rd rep. I figured today would be a new PR based on my recent performance. And sure enough- 80# and I did it twice just for good measure (with a rest in between each round).

Then I did a 10-minute workout, every minute on the minute, I did the following with a 15# dumbbell:
5 Hang Power Cleans
5 Front squats
5 Split Jerks

I guess you were supposed to use a weight that was 45% of your body weight. Considering I weigh 135#, I should have used around 60#. I tried the first round with 25# dumbbells and couldn't finish even 1 round and knew I had to drop down. I ended up using 2 15# dumbbells instead b/c that's all we had. Next time I should go for 20 if we have that weight by that time.

Then I did 3 sets of 10 reps of each hip bridges and back extensions.
