Sometimes gravity feels weak. Today was such a day.

3x5x150kg PR
I was supposed to try to lift 3x5x147.5kg, but since my wife was lifting 5x5x30, which meant there were 2x5kg plates on the bar, I couldn't be bothered swapping them out with 1x2.5+1.25 kg plates between every lift, so I just left them on and added 20kgs. This turned out to yield a +5kg 5RM PR, instead of a 2.5kg one. Rather nice increase.
Overhead Press
5x20kg
3x40kg
4x67.5kg
2x5x67.5kg PR
3x67.5kg
I was aiming for 3x5x67.5kg, but the first set only yielded 4. The next two I completed 5 reps. The 4th set I hoped to get another 5, but couldn't get more than 3 reps done. Oh well. Still a 5RM PR.

Ridiculously satisfied with my deadlifts today. I was supposed to aim for 5x175kg, but felt strong. Added 180kg, and managed 4 reps. In reality, I thought I realistically could do maybe 3x175kg .. but ended up lifting so much more.
Very very satisfied.
