Mix of yesterday and today. Been camping the last few days. Hicking/running in mountains to fill in the void with weight vest. Nothing serious but camping alone wears you out.

Sn w/2s to knee: 200#

Todays B w/bar facing burpees instead of BMU: 3:33
+ start C at 10m
Yesterdays C as RX: 8MU/16C/24WB@30#: 11:50

I can do them, I just hesitate to jump up there when I’m fatigued. Need to get past that fear. Strongman: A: carried 100# bag (heaviest we have and couldn’t seem to rig more bags together) 200ft B: Reverse Drag – sled + 90# and sled+115# C: Prowler sprint – not so much of… Read more »

A. 205×2, 210 x6
B. 9:21; was visiting a gym out of town and their BMU bar was super short so it was difficult to o string these together. Got some much needed work on starting the first rep in a set efficiently though.
B. 12:01. No parallettes here – did 3 inch deficit on plates.
