The Race to OHP 70kg - Check 1st post for Ranks.

maroon is right. Leon, you need to press the weight for at least 3x5.

Ah right i see sorry about that 50kg was the last full 5x5 i did then.

by **Wooderson** on Wed Aug 26, 2009 4:21 am

ok so I just voluntarily deloaded the OHP from 65kg to 52kg because I was beginning to pushpress more than I would like. If we can count pushpressing the OHP 5x5, I bet I can get it in the next month. Maybe i'll reload just to see... I can definitely get it 3x5... Definitely.

Check my log if you want to see recent progress and deload today. Count me in. It's on like Donkey Kong!

You are not allowed here to push press at all: knees and hips should be locked at the biginning of the lift, and only a small amount of leaning back is allowed - armpits should not be farther away than the vertical line comeing through the glutes.

Well that's good then. I could have done it but holy heck it would have been a pushfest!

Please put me in the contest though. I am at 115lbs/52kg currently with correct form.

I'm going to join the challenge.

Watch out! I have pressed 180LBS x3 before!
-but that was exactly 25 years ago. LOL. I guess I am supposed to cut and paste my standing in? But i'll wait until I get to 40kg (I'm at 35, now).

Only thing: please don't use me as a case study in "yearly rate at which muscle atrophies, and time it takes to get it back". LOL.

Here - goes.
