Training Log: Entry 2253

AM WORKOUT

(7) Axle Mat Pulls
5x123
5x156
5x226
1x276
1x366 (mixed grip)
1x456 (mixed grip, 5 second hold at top)
10x546 (straps,touch and go, rest pause)
10x456 (straps, deadstop)
25 second hold of double overhand 276

Notes: Topset broke down to 4+3+3.  Given that I could hit 3 for sequential sets, leads me to believe that the first set of 4 wasn't giving my all.  I was feeling a little beat up from the zombie run, but for the most part I need to start to cutting loose here.  I'm actually thinking of bringing back the deadlift bar after this contest for just that reason; felt like I could do more with that vs the axle.  Might be alternating weekly, or using the axle for the downsets and the deadlift bar for the top.

Notes: Felt the slight trace of my groinpull from last week on my warm-ups, and it had been a while since I really got to get in heavy work, so I didn't push the topset too hard on this.  Made up for it with downsets.  Still a ballbuster.


General notes: Woke up at 191.4.  Didn't log it yesterday, but had my cheatmeal of some steak nachos and half a chicken quesadilla.  Doubled down today, with 3 entree from Panda Experess; beijing beef, orange chicken, and teriyaki chicken.  Hunger is in full force; going to embrace it and see where it takes me.
