Came back tonight to do C.
6:42 Rx (50-54) – all UB. This is major accomplishment for me. It would have been unthinkable for me to do 21 OHS UB under fatigue last year this time. And I probably went out a bit too fast for the first 21 cal AB, so I was breathing pretty hard and my legs were feeling it when I got to the first set of OHS.

A – Done, but skipped C2B as elbow still a little sore from earlier in week. Improving though. B – RDLs at 185#. Death March with 45# DBs. Like doing RDLs. Great reminders on technique.

Had a very rushed day today. Managed to fit in 10 minutes of training… just enough to keep me sane. So I decided to do section C.

Literally did a minute on the Assault Bike and a set of 3 OHS with an empty bar then a set of 3 OHS with 40kg for my warm up.

Got it done in 5:38. Must admit my legs were not warmed up enough and my arms felt like jelly after the 21 OHS but I am happy I got some training done today.

A. DOne
B. DOne used 135# and 35# KB for death March
C. 6:07, I don’t think I was warmed up enough, my intent was to go UB OHS (15/6, UB, UB). Was searching for a comfortable position on my grip and hips warmed up after round !. Kept AB around 65 rpm.

A. Done
B. Single leg RDL and sandbag squats
C. 7:51 I just now read the “practice a fast cadence” and laughed at myself. I did the slowest unbroken sets of OHS ever. Didn’t want to put that thing down, but there was nothing fast about the movement.
Practiced a few RMU’s and got a few…hopefully they stay a while.
Optional later.

Went to the hotel fitness center and did this:
Warm up with 3 rounds and run instead of row.
Decided to do 18.0 again…what else is there to do a hotel gym? ? Not quite as fast as a couple weeks ago but worked on smoother DB transitions and below face level to rule out any questions. 3:32
