Rings, DL

In Italy on Monday

PU: hang for 2 min total on bar, PU at start and every :15, total 8 PU

and a few other things

Day after getting back, today, Thursday

Rings: play w/ dips, starting at bottom, seems very good.  Just a couple

DL:  Heavy Day week4

245 x 1, 1, 1 double over
285 x 1, 1, 1 double over - better at keeping the bar close
305 x 1, 1 r/u - start to helicopter, losing it to the front on the right side, which is underhand

325, all l/u:
x 2 - second rep a struggle, should wait a little longer between reps,
x 2 - second rep again a struggle, even though I waited a little longer

x 2 - first rep a struggle, rest about 3:00, second rep pretty much a death march but I _got_ it.  Much to learn, but completed a tough day after a lot of time off, sitting for 12 hours, plane rides, etc - feeling pretty good overall.  Built some toughness, or at least demonstrated some, today.

DL

Today, Monday, after no lifting for a week

Belated Heavy day from last week.  Will pull twice this week but backwards, and we'll have another one-pull week to get back on track

NB: Worked super hard Tuesday and Wednesday, woke up sick on Thursday but taught all day, was sick and mostly in bed all day Friday and most of Saturday, got better by still couldn't speak normally by Sunday, and now today is Monday

1APU @ 10" x 1, 1 lf

SQ: HBBS, 135 lbs. super deep and paused, allstars

BP: 135 x 5, 155 x 4, a recent PR reps at this weight, and bodyweight this AM was 149.2 lbs.

DL: Surovetsky Heavy #3

245 x 3 paused tng - warmup

285 x 3 r/u w/ reset at bottom
305 x 2 l/u w/ reset at bottom
325 x fail - planned 3 singles, but just not able to muster the oomph today, and that's what it is.

Well, turns out I misloaded the bar to 345, not 325, so not exactly a fail at 325.  Onward and upward

DL

Yesterday, Sunday, very busy and no lifting

Today, Monday, start at 5:15 pm

MP: w/ KB, 18 kg x 7 l/r - slow and controlled, felt good

SQ: HBBS 135 lbs x 5, deep, paused, exhaled was the intention, but first rep or two didn't go that deep.  Didn't wear any shoes, might have something to do with it.  Last time, wore Allstars, need to try again in Oly shoes.

BP: 155 x 4

DL: 255 x 5 x 5 again, volume day, same weight as last time but this time it's exactly 75%.  Finished a little sooner, about every 2:15 for a new set today.
