    Wow... You do this with a plate and screws? That's amazing!
    Yep. It's about an 8" plate with 6 screws, or a 6" plate with 8 screws. I've never been able to keep those numbers straight. Doesn't hinder much just never had full range of motion after rehabbing it. The more I lift the better the ROM gets but it will still never be what it was before.

    This was my last set of Standing Military Press on today's 5x5 session. I'm recovering from an injury to my right shoulder and you'll see it was pretty fatigued at this point. It is feeling good though and getting stronger each week 😁

    Awesome! Even with the fatigued should it still looks like a solid strong press!

    Well done. Get yourself some KT tape for that shoulder.

    Thanks! It is healing nicely, albeit a bit wobbly at the end of my sets

    You're doing great! I also have shoulder issues, so I've had to be very careful on how hard I load myself. I progress very slowly on OHP as a result. Plus, I have to do it sitting because I'm too tall and my gym ceiling is low. 😔

    And...
    Thanks for sharing! ❤️👏🔥

    Good lift.

    I empathize, my A/C joint in my right shoulder has been completely torn since 2003 (Police Academy Injury). Hope you’re able to make a full recovery with yours.

    Thank you. Sorry to hear about your injury - looks like you're still making it work though! You have some serious gainz going on. Mine is doing pretty well - I have been building the strength back up by doing light volume work and today was my first full 5x5 in nearly a month. If it is still good next week I'll start kicking up the weight little by little. Before it gave out I was set to get a PB of a 30kg press so working back to that 😊

    Great Arch! Love that I can see the wall on the other side under the back arch!

    @KickassAmazon76 You crushed both of those! You are one strong and impressive lady! Can't wait to see 175 and 180 😁

    Also, and I'm sorry if I'm over posting, but... I'm excited! I stalled out at 175lb squats, so I dropped down 15 pounds and added an extra set. Today I did six sets of 5 at 170... With only 90s rest between sets.

    The next set will be 175, but I KNOW I have 180. And that makes me happy, too!

    Great strength on both lifts. 💪🏼🔥

    @dsc84 & @5ofseven Thank you! The form felt extra solid this time!

    @espressolove11 it's funny, some days I'm so proud, and then other days I see women crushing double and triple the weight and I cannot even Imagine being that strong. Last night was just an awesome night. 😊

    @kinetixtrainer2 thank you!!

    I went to the gym for leg day.

    I took a video.

    I can't convert it to a gif.

    I stink.

    I think you can use giphy.com for that?

    I downloaded an app (gif maker - editor) that works really well. I prefer it and it doesn't take up much space. You're close!

    Nice deep squat. Don’t you just love those leg days wearing the masks?

    I honestly love the mask and quite used to it. Cardio is messy with the condensation but I'll do my part. Thanks for the form check, I always think I'm not deep enough.

    If you have to wear’em it’s good you like’em. I wear them but I do not enjoy them at all on leg day. Cardio isn’t so bad but I I’m only doing moderate cardio 3 days a week for 20 min ATM.
