Getting One In

School will officially begin tomorrow. Looking forward to another great year with my co-workers and students. We got a bunch of new fitness equipment in that I can't wait to put to good use. I'm heading to So Cal on Thursday night for one my best friend's wedding. Super excited as I haven't been back home in almost a decade. Looking forward to seeing some old friends! Hit Prevail up for a back squat session (couldn't miss that) and one last WOD before I head out of town. Tomorrow is my lovely daughter's 3rd birthday...family time tomorrow!

Strength
Back Squat - 5 x 2 @ 90% (460 1RM)
bar(10)-135(8)-185(8)-225(5)-275(5)-315(3)-365(2) --- 415
- Been sitting for two days straight and my back and hammies are feeling it. Quick stretch tonight though as I wanted to try retain some stretch reflex for the heavy sets. Burned through my warm ups to get my body temp up. Weight was feeling light from the jump. My legs definitely enjoyed the last two days off. 415# felt good on my back. Kept the reps as fast as possible and as deep as I could get em. Felt strong tonight!

4th set...415# dbl Back Squat

WOD

5 rounds of total time - push ups for score:

  400m Row (1:20, 1:22, 1:21, 1:26, 1:23)

  1:00 ME HR Push Ups (34, 25, 22, 22, 21)

   2:00 REST

= 1136 - 124 = 1012

- Another one of those "this looks easy" sneaky WODs. Last few rounds were a struggle on the rower. I had a good groove in the push ups. My arms were just swollen by the 3rd round of rowing. Thought my legs would give me more problems coming right off the squats, but nope...they were fine. Rowed next to Alex, which helped push me on the rower a ton.

Cash Out

Strict GH Raises - 4 x 8

- Gotta get the PC work in!
