Monday

Poor performance during my morning strength workout. Really should have just skipped it, was beat up from Saturday and Sunday.

AM workout, 6:30a @ Ballys:

Bench Press:
Warm up: 135x6, 175x4
Work: 195x5, 200x3, 205x3
Cool: 135x 10

Back Squat:
Warm up: 135x5, 185x1, 205x1, 225x1
Work: 185(f13)

The back squat was just a poor mental performance, and I probably should have taken one more day to rest since doing my 20 rep sequence on Saturday. First time I've failed since starting at #135 and going up #5 for 20 reps each workout. On about rep 8 I was telling myself already that I wasn't going to get it, but the weight really wasn't feeling that heavy. I went down on the 12th or 13th rep and just got stuck in the bottom position, rolled a bit on my toes (i was wearing running shoes), and that was that.


PM workout, 5:00p @ CFC:

Press: 5-5-5+
90-105-118(11)

Again, not great, since I've gotten #120 10-11 times. Press seems to be stuck in a rut.

Metcon:
5 rds
15 push press (#75), 15 box jumps ("24)

Time: 4:41

Good gasser. Would have liked to get all the presses unbroken, but broke the last two sets up 7-8, 8-7. Good push from Bryce and Chris. Box jumps were fine, quads were burning a little by the end.
