Typically on the air by I was averaging maybe 75-80 RPMs and always noticed that I was last on the bike workouts on the blog today I went all out for the first time and I was able to do 90+ but of course I died out after two sets.

I also feel like this is the only trie exercise that is a sprint and all out. although I got hit in the face today I can definitely see how it’s going to benefit me in the future and I’m really looking forward to it

Squats up to 347, ugly. I think I need to drop my max squat

Emom at 317 done

Conditioning as I quit after two rounds because I was canned from actually going all out on the bike for the first time I had a little bit more emotion going into it because this past week and I lost the podium because of the assault bike so notetaking and I will prepare better next time I did complete two rounds of at 3:53 and 333
