Rebuilding the Pathetic Overhead


No headroom, so the heavy overhead exercise is:

Seated Shoulder Press from the Pins: The bar is about 1" or so above where it'd be racked on my shoulders for a standing press. I do not have my back against the upright seat of the bench, but the seat is up, and will prevent excessive layback.

45x20, 45x20, 95x10, 135x10, 155x5, 165x5, 175x3

This does NOT feel as good as the standing press. Plus, I'm weak as a fucking kitten on this.

60° Inc BP: 135x10, x5

Worked fast, so sadly, this got a bit hard. Once again, this will be part of the scheme for building the overhead back to a respectable level. 135x10, sadly, is not a respectable level.

Chins + Inv. Row: 3 sets, AMRAP (as many reps as possible)
