More reps/weight and possibly more accessory exercises will be added as the weeks go by. Just have to remember that this is a reset, and I'm letting my body recover from the Open/Regionals season. |

My metcon sucks right now. I decided to make the switch to high bar back squats today. I think I like the way it leaves my neck feeling a bit better. It should also have an improved impact on the rest of my training versus the low bar squat, and I don't think it will have a considerable impact on my 500# squat goal. Tried to make the swings as competition strict as possible, though I still think it's an excessive extension for the movement. |

I don't if it's because I under-ate yesterday, drank last night, or just didn't have it in me today, but ****! Squats felt weak, even in the warm-ups. The bar was bothering my neck today, which has never happened before. My first two reps were tough, and on my third I could tell I was leaning way too much; I got up to the top of that rep and went straight for the rack. Bench felt good in the warm-ups, but the 3rd and 4th reps were a fight. Oh well, I knew **** was going to get depressing went my progressions went above 80%. On the plus side, my chin-ups felt great; probably because of how little energy I expended before hand, but I'll take it where I can get it. |

I'd actually toyed with the idea of last week being it and scheduling a vacation for this weekend, but those plans ended up not being in the cards. After struggling with a weight on the deadlifts that I've already done twice, I decided to scrap this weeks progressions and do some long light metcons this week. I'm going to start a modified Conjugate CrossFit program next week, so I might as well rest up for my first round of 1 rep max squats on Thursday. I rested for 2 hours, then: 5k row 20:42.4 This is only 34 seconds over my PR, which isn't bad for not having done much metcon or rowing in several weeks and being about 4 hours removed from lunch. |
