The Push Press 7×3 made a return visit to the menu. The last time I did this was 1/28/07. In that post, I said I had a little left in the tank and the same was true tonight, but once again, saved it for another day, Even so, I increased my best 3 lift total from 155 to 170 lbs tonight.

This was a good Friday late afternoon workout. It did not take long to do today and was low-key. My 3 reps lifts were: 95/115/135/145/155/160/170 pr/135.
