A) 9:30, hard to compare from 1/11 because I ran on a trueform which I rarely get to do, made it quite a bit harder, my mu suck 9/4/3/2/2 B) 155/175/185/195 C) 250/265 << stayed at 265, very hard today. Legs had no push, same as yesterday, nervous system isn't right. This was a good indicator of that as well, 275 for relatively easy triples previous week, not this week. D) worked up to 300 Conditioning EMOM done, shpu for last rounds didn't get 10, got 8/7. Everything else done. This one looked worse on paper than it turned out… Read more »

Why do you think the dead stops always crush you? They should have felt tough today after 3 hard days of training.

You’ve worked hard this week and the 3rd day of hard training is always hard on your body. Time to rest up and get ready to hit Friday hard!

2×8 @ 185

Wtd stationary dips @20X1 tempo
