A. Deadlift based of 180kg 1RM
10x90kg 10x110kg 8x135kg 6×152.5kg 4×162.5kg/355#
B. As RX 3 rounds flat
Since I’m still getting started after a 3 week vacation I decided to pace this one with a OT4M pace. Worked out quite nice, but can’t wait to be able to fully push again!

Yea. I knew when I went to 5×5 @ 85% I was playing with fire. It was a good workout though

Good morning everybody… A. up to 346#/2. completely blown up by the time I got here. this was 90% of 1 rm. on a positive note, I did hit 327 for 6 which is a new 5 rep max by a rep and 2 pounds B. 4+32 (12 wb) RX with 60# kb; if this was yesterday, I would have gone 5+, but there’s that old saying about my aunt being my uncle. well she isnt and this wasn’t yesterday.

Yesterday: A) SHSPU: 10 – 8 – 6 – 4 – 3 – 2 – 1. 1 min rest between sets. I tried a wider hand placement for these and it was quite effective but I feel like I’m breaking the standard and really working on a tripod position so I think I’ll refrain from it and just keep enforcing proper mechanics. B) OT2M x 5. 8 benchpreses with 60 kgs. C) For time 2 km row. 7’31” Pacing consistently in the 1’50” to 1’54” with 25-28 strokes per minute, I pushed the pace a bit in the last 300… Read more »

A. Altered 1RM, since my deadlift is back to the drawing board after going with double overhand a few months ago. Based off 390, instead of 430.

B. 4 rds even. No gas in the tank today, woke up hungry. Kb swings were the only thing I broke up but rests were too often and too long.

C. Eat.
