Back from the dead
Warm-up:
foam rolling
front squat
good mornings
5-5-6-6-6 front squat (95,135,165,2x185)
5-5-5-5-4 floor press (95,155,3x160)
bar muscle-up practice (2 successes + 4 failures)
Finally back in the gym after being destroyed by food poisoning the last four days. Not as terrible as I expected considering I've not eaten a full meal until today. I've clearly lost some weight, but I think it's mostly water.
Nostalgia:

Welcome back to the land of the living, B...
Question about floor presses (going to switch over soon as my bench weight approaches consistent failure before 5 reps): do you do it in a rack, or just free on the floor?
I do it in the power rack cause you need to elevate the bar (unless you have T-rex arms and are only 6 inches wide). A power rack is best, but you may be able to make do with that squat rack abomination at Coles.
Coolio, that's what I figured. The lowest bars on the crappy squat rack at Coles is fairly high off the ground, so I'm losing the bottom few inches (at least) of the press.
Better than dropping weight on my throat, I guess...
