Conclusions:
This was the heaviest workout in a long time. After the initial fail on the pull-ups, the rest of the workout felt good and I got some good work done. But are fairly knackered now.
On the Floor press, I am probably nearing my limit for what I can safely do without some kind of rack to lift the bar from. (Currently I roll it to my gut and sort of flip it up in my hands for the heavier weights. But I can see that this could pose some risk to my wrists when the weights go up.)
Post workout treat: Nutramino XL protein chocolate shake - just love those, even if they are a bit heavy on the calories.
