Jim vs. Push Press, and Another Finisher

Back in the gym. When I did the Klokov complex, it drove home how rarely I do the push press. So I decided to start by changing that up.

Push press
95 x 3
115 x 3
135 x 3
125 x 3
105 x 3

Those weights seemed to be really good. There wasn’t an easy set in the lot, but I also got them all done.

I finished up with another, well, finisher:

6, 5, 4… 1 of:
Spider-man climbs (both sides)
Jump squats
X-body mountain climbers (both sides)

Got through this this in 2:42, and it definitely worked me harder than the last one. A big part of it was the quicker transitions; in fact, most of the time there was no real transition between the x-body mountain climbers and the next round of Spidey climbs. Good stuff.
