shoulder press and armstrong pulups

Shoulder Press

5x75
5x85
Max reps @ 95 = 8

Armstrong max pullups in 5 sets

11/8/7/7/4 Had a complete lack of character on the last round. 36. Compared to last thursday which was 40 (12/8/7/6/7).

But compared to Week two which was 31 pullups, this is pretty good (well, the 40 on Thurs was an improvement . . . )

Shoulder presses were from the 5/3/1 style on Jay Ashman's site that he's taking from Jim Wendler.

Working weight is taken from 90% of 1rm. So my 1rm is 125, 90% is 112.5 (110), But week one was 5x65%, 5x75%, and max reps @85% of that 90% so 75lbs, 85, 95.

Next press day (wendler)will be

Press
70% x 3
80% x 3
90% x max reps

So 3x 80, 3x90, max reps at 101.5 (I do have 2.5 worth of chains . . . )
