About the same level of fatigue overall although the 3rd and 4th rounds I seemed to be a little better off because I didn’t have to pull as hard.

What is going on with the left shoulder?!
Achy and lots of popping and snapping. Hoping it’s not tendonitis.
Lay off any shoulder work for the next week and go get treated by a bodyworker. Let it recover from the volume its been doing.
Thanks Nichole. I have an appt next Monday.

C) it was a slow death. Those rings Dips were ugly on the last 2 sets.
4:04 (Row 2:59)
5:00 (Row 3:12)
5:10 (Row 3:22)
5:45 (Row 3:30)
D) later
You got them all done under the 6 minute mark!! Wonderful! We are going to get those triceps STRONG!
Now that I think about it, I can’t remember ever doing 60 ring Dips in one sitting. The last few reps may have been questionable on the lock out but not for lack of trying. I’m glad I stuck with 15 and didn’t scale the reps. ? I guess that was a PR
FANTASTIC Dawn!!!

Thanks Nichole – dips are definitely getting better!
