CONDITIONING

Tabata intervals boxing on BAS (20 seconds on/10 seconds off for 8 rounds)

Notes: 2:30 between sets of benching, 2:00 between dip/curl superset.  DB benching continues to improve as I go.  System seems to be working.  Benching on the toes again on the flat bench: wonder if the decrease in bodyweight has gotten me back to a better mobility point.  Alternated sets of flat bench and swiss bar per usual.  Changed up the bicep work to the chain curls with the d-ring. Appreciate the new stimulus, and I feel like it might work out well.  Always like the effect of chain curls.

Playing around with ideas for future training cycles on the press.  My strength seems to have stabilized on it to the point that I think I could set up a TM again and get something out of 5/3/1.  Was thinking of SVR II where I keep the main work the axle and change up the supplemental work between axle, log and trap bar.  Would still go really stupid on the assistance work with it.  Kicking around similar ideas on the deadlift.  For tomorrow's squat workout, I'm gonna give the buffalo bar another go and see if I'm healed enough.  I'm just not as strong when I train with the SSB vs the buffalo bar.  The pain in the abductor is pretty much gone now, so anything is possible.  

Biggest takeaway is that the bench and squat have been moving well because they've been different, so different may be a good idea across the board.
