36Kg Bottoms Up Press PR 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Sometimes when you’re working a good program, you’ll hit PR’s that you didn’t even see coming.
This press came as a surprise to me because I had been dealing with a partially torn bicep tendon for the last few months.
The program that I was doing focused heavily on the strict military press, but pressing became agonizing to do, due to my injury.
But for some reason, bottoms up pressing was much more manageable for me to do. So, being as stubborn as I am 😅, I decided to make a pivot in order to continue working towards my goal.
Instead of strict pressing on my right I’d change it to bottoms up presses, adjust the volume, and start working more strict presses in my left arm to get it to catch up with the strength of my right.
A couple weeks after making this pivot a new PR is achieved!💪🏽
Set backs are bound to happen, that’s just part of the process, but if you pivot quickly you might surprise yourself at what you can achieve!
Get after it today everyone! And happy holidays!💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
