A. 250, 295, 340, 365, 385, 410 based off 455 last set was tough
B. 8:58 Rx

Not sure why this was so hard, long weekend, getting sick Tuesday, working out Wed night and Thursday morning, the DLs before or it was just hard? Everything from 40cal onwards was a struggle I never caught my breath

A) Deadlift 10×265, 10×315, 6×355, 4×380, 1×405. These felt super heavy today so I backed off the reps and sets.

B) 2k row for time: 7:55

Wrist has been a bit sore – no idea why but I changed a few things up for that.

Squats for DL but kept the same scheme. Based off of 260.
All as Rx except for last set. Only did

260, 315, 345 (reduced to singles to get 8), 345 (6), 405 (3)

B. Did 60 airdyne cals and used 50lb DB since that’s what I got

A. Deadlifts up to 325 based off of 365.

All those sets felt solid. My grip was the limiter. DOG first three sets.

B. Rx with rower. 9:23. Grip was the biggest factor. Pull-ups were a lot of 2-3 reps. I kept moving. Slow and steady. Lunges were unbroken.

A. Deadlift – based off 240#
10×135, 10×160, 8×180, 8×195, 6×205, 4×216
***The last 2 reps of the last set got a little ugly!
B. For Time – 8:02
40 cal Row – 2:50
50 Pull Ups – 3:06
100′ Lunges @ 35# DB’s – 2:06
***Started pull ups in set of 8 and quickly went to sets of 6,5,4,3 and the last 4 reps in sets of 2
Wanted to get the lunges with only 1 break…but ended up breaking 4 times…but just a quick shake out of the arms and picked the weights right back up.

A. 185/225/245/275/295/310. Broke 295 into 3/3 and 310 in singles. Grip got me on the DOG today.

B. Rx’d with AB & kb 6:56. Burn out quads, check. Smoke grip, check. Now farmers carry lunge to finish. So evil! Wow

From 190 kg:
1. Easy and fast,
2. Easy and fast,
3. Easy and fast,
4. Screamed a little, ?
5. Heavy – did quick singles,
6. Failed both mentally and physically. Maybe the break betweens sets was too long. I knew that I will fail. :-/ #mindset

A. Have some lower back pain…I felt discomfort at 225. Decided to skip this one. I think I aggravated a tweak from last weeks squats during yesterday’s cleans.

Hit the bike and did some stretching.

Oh no, feel better! Make sure you do extra glute and core activation to help with low back pain.

20 push-ups
8 strict pull-ups

B. 5k row – 20min w/45s water/glute break at 2500m.

Good morning, everybody…

A. 211/250/288/308/327/346 RX. got all sets and reps this time. I used 3′ between sets as opposed to doing a set every 3′, which is what I did the last time. it’s still brutal.
B. 9:06 RX with row and did lunges with 50# dbell and 60# kb switching arms every 20′. the row blew up my arms and grip. had to do pullups in 5s.

I’m sure the row does affect the pull up grip quite a bit, especially in a chipper like this. Way to push the intensity today
