I really debated about starting a log. This journey gets very personal at times. It's hard to announce to the world things you didn't even want to admit to yourself. But that's why I did it. It needed to be right in front of me so I could deal with it head on. And I needed support to get through it. Who would have thought I'd find that here of all places. :lol: But I did. These guys have been a great help and encouragement through some tough times for me and they probably don't even realize it. - Pagangoddess

I just realized this was for 1RM. I'm doing 140lbs 5x5. I'll do my 1RM tomorrow then. It's a 'B' day anyway.

Congrats Dylanamus!

Thanks guys. Make sure you warm up thoroughly. An OHP 1RM puts a lot of stress on your shoulders.
