Overhead Press
Set the height of the J-hooks 1 hole higher today, because I always seem to re-rack the bar too high. It's about 1 1/2" higher than normal.
The bar was at Adam's apple level. I think this made it easier to get the 1st rep up, because I could drop the bar a inch or so towards my shoulders, causing a stretch reflex for the 1st rep (normally at shoulder level and press at a dead stop).

- Damn. This shot up like it was nothing. I was feeling a bit confused after the set and thought I had mis-loaded the bar.
- 245lbs: MISSED
- Thought I could get this no problem considering how easy 240lbs felt. Nope. Maybe in the next few weeks.

- Aimed for 5 reps (and a 5RM) but ran out of power.
