Training Log: Entry 2407

PM WORKOUT/STRONGMAN SUNDAY

Yoke 50'
4xYoke
4x324
2x525
2x625

EMOM for 10 minutes
-Stone of steel over bar (peg 20, loaded with 60lbs) and remainder of minute on airdyne

Notes: The yoke isn't feeling any lighter, but I'm feeling better with it.  525 felt impossible and then moved faster than last week, and then 625 felt even more impossible and was essentially a controlled stagger down the block, but I never dropped the yoke, which was my goal.

Had a big technique breakthrough on the stone that I realize the rest of the world already knew; when it's lapped, right before going over the bar, dip your torso below the stone so that it's resting on the top of your chest.  This gets you much more clearance for moving the stone and requires far less lean back.  Better position for triple extension too.

Never did a strongman events day before.  Was pretty enjoyable.  Very time consuming though.

Woke up at 197.4.  Holding a good amount of sodium, but still think some weight is sticking.
