Day One, Week One: Military Press

Well, I'm back in the saddle again, as the song goes. I had intended to compete at the Washington State Championships in May, but after competing in December I took it easy for too long, gained weight and lost some strength, and am only now just beginning to really get back into the swing of things. So, my plan now is to compete at the YMCA Seattle Summer Classic in June, hopefully in the next lighter weight class (< 242). It'll be interesting to see how far I've come in the one year since I competed for the first time at this same event.

My trainer has been reading up on the Juggernaut Training System, and has designed my new workout along those lines. Day one has me doing 5 sets of 5 military presses at about 70% of my one rep max weight, followed by two supplemental exercises:
