Somehow put 5lb onto my OHP

After two months of dieting (-6 pounds) and not lifting at all since lockdown began.

My brother just got a squat rack in his spare room, so I used a barbell for the first time in months.

Now, while I haven't lifted, I have done a billion pushups (100-200+ several times a week), pike pushups, and handstand holds, so it's not like I've done NOTHING, but I'm still surprised.

So now I OHP 80lb at a body weight of around 130. I'd like to reach 90-100 for the lift. My shoulders still look very small to me.

I wrote down hand stands in my OP! I need to get a video of me doing one. I can't hold one for very long, but I can kick up and stay there for several seconds now.

Holding one for even 2 seconds is impressive

Absent personal experience, I guess I'll just assume that's how much dicks weigh now.

Good on ya! It’s possible that you were a bit overtrained, and a period of lighter training helped you recover.
