Push Day 8/17/2026
I surprised myself today by tapping into a reserve of strength I didn't know I had on every single lift. What an incredible push day. Here is a quick breakdown of the lifts:
- Low incline smith press: 2 warmups today and 3 working sets. The last was to failure. The weight was up on the 2nd and 3rd set.
- Seated Hammer press: 2 sets with the last set to failure. The weight was up on both sets.
- Incline fly: Two sets with the last set to failure. The weight was up on both sets today.
- Seated OH Hammer press: 3 sets with the last to failure. I sound like a broken record but the weight was up on sets 2 and 3.
- Cable side laterals: 2 sets. Yes, the weight was up on both sets. Wow.
- Tricep OH extensions: 2 sets with failure on the 2nd set. Weight was up on both sets.
- Abs: 2 sets.
- Sled Sprints: 8 reps.
- Elliptical for 15 minutes.
My weight this morning was 186.7 with 16.8 pounds of fat. Total steps yesterday was 12,643.
