Perfect machine
For practicing pistols, anyway. Was the best raised platform where I could get some stability from the bars and allow some room for my nonloaded leg. Worked a little bit at the end of the session - I tend to avoid pistols because my flexibility (or lack thereof) always gets in the way. Some good progression info at Beastskills.
Warm-up:
1x10 pushups/situps/squats
1x5 deadlift (5x45, 5x135, 5x185, 3x225, 1x245 then 1x5x265)
3x5 shoulder press (5x45, 5x55, 3x65, 1x75 then 3x5x80)
10 pistols (5 per side, on platform)
10 kb swings (35)
10 standing plate twists (45)
DLs felt nice and steady, starting over again at a light weight and will build up. Remembered to bring chalk this time, which will help as the loads go up. Press relatively easy but aim on building slowly back there as well.

You know, the one time I tried pistols I REALLY messed up my knees. I'm still not sure why, but it severely impaired my ability to work out for the next month or so. Nice work on doing them!
