Athlete Notes:
Deadlift volume is going to be real today. But, if there’s definitely something we can all continue to improve, it’s our strength endurance with regards to pulling under fatigue. Check back to your notes to see how this went last time, and see if there’s something you can adjust. Maybe you push the row a little harder? Maybe you do one less set on the deadlifts? Whatever it is, try something different and see if you can beat your previous time! The follow up workout to the deadlifts is a great bodyweight, grind-style workout. It’s really easy to check out in a longer workout like that, especially after already completing a workout at a higher intensity. In competitions there are plenty of times where turnarounds are quick between events and we need to see that athletes can recover in time to give a full effort on short notice. Use these two workouts as a potential opportunity to practice your nutrition between events that have short turnarounds, and as always, see if you can beat your previous times!

Primer done A. 110/130/150Kg(75%) x 4; stopped there b/c right high hamstring was extremely tight and tender today. I’ve been feeling it all week. B1. 6:27Rx; 6:21 last time. Eased off on the DL today because of hamstring. Last time was all UB; today did 3×9/3×7/10.5/9. Rows were a lot quicker today, held ~1650 cal/hr pace. Overall happy because if hamstring wasn’t wonky I would definitely be well under 6 min. B2. 15:26 Rx no vest. 16:23 last time no vest. The push-ups and air squats were really quick today, all sub 1:00. Runs were ~1:50-1:55. Went easy on these… Read more »
I’d be smart the rest of the week and take some extra rest or just keep things light. Best go into the next cycle feeling healthy!

Fun day
Having to use your brain as well as your fitness to come up with these!
Hows your body feeling?
I don’t mind it I like the challenge and can use it to program for the gym members ????
Honestly not great. Knee is a problem as well as the elbow (medial epicondylitis), so I’m going to continue to do more body building and strong man type workouts, as well as additional rehab for them for the next few weeks and will see where I’m at. Frustrating, but as long as I can keep getting some fitness in I’ll be happy!
Sorry to hear that dude. Any idea what’s going on?
Elbow yes, been dealing with it on and off for years but want to actually try to do my best to fix it this time around.. as long as I can get even 50% relief I’ll be happy Knee is new did something while sprinting in softball a couple weeks ago and squatting has been very painful .. had it looked at by a friend of mine who’s a PT .. could be an MCL sprain but unclear currently.. gonna see what happens after spending some time rehabbing it and if there’s no change then may need to get some… Read more »
