I have changed my programming, this one doesn't have one focus just general fitness, my old bench press program felt really good and my bench finally progressed to ending with 5 sets of 3 with 235 (which I didn't post) and finally getting 5 reps with 225 (then 4 and 4). Good working today!

That was one hard set at 245, but at least I didn't fail this time like last time. I maybe could have gotten 8 reps on the handstand pushups first set but the plate slipped.

A good burn workout, I don't know if that is what I got on the chinups, but I remember thinking it was lower than what I'd normally get. The handstand pushups were done to a higher mat, and still fairly hard as the sets went on.

I haven't done floor presses in, well I'm not even sure how long, but they were cool, I got 6 on the last set but it was assisted so I didn't count it. The first set of the handstand pushups was too much of a deficit, I barely got 3, going off the bumper plates was a more appropriate challenge. Good workout!!

Finally got back to three reps on the bench press with 225, next goal is 5 reps....hopefully that one doesn't take too long. The incline bench was harder because of it, the handstand pushups however were very difficult, I haven't done them in ages and was pre-fatigued.

My CNS may need a break soon, but why not try another workout, going easy on the volume.
Handstand Pushups - 14, 10, 10
Hammer Strength Row (high to low) - 180x12, 10, 10
Tension Woodchops

Stairmaster - 60 Floors, un timed
Decent workout. The stairs were done for 10 floors at a moderate pace, then another ten sped up for 3 sets, hence the 60 floors. The last sped I went to speed 18, which is essentially running on the stairmaster, that really burned the legs.

Good workout, the HSPU and rows wasn't timed but moved at a decent pace, only the first round was unbroken.

I didn't think i'd have time to workout today, but a cancellation opened up some time, decided to do something boring yet random.
For time
50 Handstand Pushups
Time: 10:43
For time
70 Neutral Grip Pullups
Time: 11 something, on the lower end.
Pistol Squat practise.
The handstand pushups and pullups became many smaller sets, I more or less just started doing them without knowing a total number, it burned pretty good. I have gotten much better at pistol squats because of my shoes but still can't do them without assistance, but boy was it close. One of these days.
