Jump on a scale holding your trap bar and find out! It’s usually around 60-70lb.

I definitely could have done longer sets, but it probably would have made the MU much too hard. I broke it up to save my grip and lats for the muscle ups as that’s my biggest weakness. I didn’t rest very long between the sets on the deadlifts.

Yewww just did all strength programming and hit the AMRAP
Went with #155 even though I know I could have gone 225 it just would’ve been too slow. Did 20 ring rows instead of MU. That was a back burner lol
Stretch / food then gymnastics program
