10-18-13 – Military Press
Posted in Mike Mireles Training Log
I felt a little tight today from my deadlift day yesterday. The Rumble Roller made it a lot better. I spent a good amount of time rolling my body to loosen up my tight muscles. It was somewhat cold in the gym so I made sure I was nice and loose.
The presses went very well. They felt solid and fast. Since putting the military press back into my training I have felt strong in my bench press. On my last set of presses I was going to be happy with anything more than five reps. I ended up getting ten reps! My triceps were fatigued towards the end. This is a good number to shoot for on my day of as many reps as possible. I did all of my accessories in a circuit. Today was a sweet and simple day of training.
