There really is no rush to rep 80kg...
Would be nice If I could do it within a month.. Even if 3 reps, those are still reps!
See now I have to try 80kg today or tomorrow
I predict... 1 rep!
and then turn it in to this:

Still using the neutral grip bar for your workout?
Haven't used that for a while, so I might have a play tomorrow.
It's harder than a normal bar
Really?
That would be fun to play with.. Damn my argos weight! 
You have some awesome shoulder pressing, great stuff.
My shoulder AIDS is still alive an kicking but my shoulders are getting stronger. Whilst in now way am I close to doing what you do, I'm repping 60kg with relative ease now, and can squeeze out a few on 70kg. So I'm catching up!
Push press is fine though, over 100kg on that!
Shoulders are the only thing going for me at the moment
I did try some push pressing, but couldn't get the power to push any relatively big numbers, so will need to work on that (need to re-look at the olympic lifting thread).Come at me bro
Had inlaws over, so that mangled my plans a bit. Will have to cram as much as I can in, in the next few days!

Thanks. Now to destroy my legs as they really need it

Nice.

All kinds of tightness and weakness today, can tell I haven’t squatted in awhile!

Looks like I need to go back to basics! Might see if I can throw in an extra squat day to give them some love.
Oh how I've missed struggling to walk down the stairs and DOMS haven't even kicked in yet!

No. You just have to try harder.
Practically speaking, however, not sure any of us can keep up with his freaky shoulders.
And where are those front squats?
Ran out of time (baby decided to wake up). Hence I'm thinking about an extra squat day
.Where's the love bro?

Did a few powercleans from standing position, just to hit the upper back.. Only 50kg, so nothing to write about.

Noticed some weakness in my left arm when working through the bench. I don't know if it was due to the grind on the PB set, but first time my arm has gone slightly numb!

strong PB only a week or so after coming back
Thanks
. Gotta love that fasted training! I think I will be keeping my 5 reps within the 100 - 110 range at the moment, see if I can aim for full sets at the top end before attempting any new PB's

Spent most of the morning playing around with different squat positions (front, low, high and goblet). Was only playing around at 100kg, so wasnt much to write about.
Noticed some flexibility issues, especially in my hamstrings, that were causing some major butt wink. Hopefully sort that out soon and also get in to a good front rack position for front squats!

Ah sorry, forgot to say which! It was in low bar that it was pretty obvious. Goblet and front squats looked pretty tidy and felt ok, where as low bar was starting to hurt my lower back
