Congrats on the rep PR!
Hope hubby gets something soon.
Great pr LL.
If the last one has a bit of a leg drive I would count it. If it’s more well then maybe not.
The bench volume looks a bit overkill 2 exercises supersetted. I would SS Paused bench with some row variant and on bench day SS pres with chinups or pulldowns. The volume set is not meant to fatigue you that much. You are trying to get stronger, so use that paused bench to work on technique and speed.

@ChickenLittle- thank you! I hope something happens soon too!
@mortdk-
1.) will attempt to make all presses clean no leg drive, this prob is not a pr then
2.) the benching felt great, but I get what you are saying…sigh…shuffles out of log.
How’d the bench feel? I think @mortdk is right. 5 x 5 on one would probably be enough. If you supersetted the two then the weight was probably too light. Bump up the weight and pick one.
Bench felt great! Understand your point…
Good to see you lifting again

Scale is lying-116.5 lbs…I normally weigh myself at work, the gym scale must be different because that is -4 lbs since last time I weighed myself!!!

Proof in the pudding, I think I am continuing to lean out while maintaining strength. First time I have seen abs in a loooooong time. Course my belly button is a crater from having kids, but it is not something I can change…so pretty happy where I am right now!
