Notes: The max effort performance showed me I’m most likely not fully recovered from the 301 rep set I did 2 days ago.  I crammed in a week’s worth of training in 5 days due to having to work this weekend.  I was pleased with the effort put forth, just not the outcome, but such is life.  Rest of the training was awesome.  Really digging that deficit set, and that’s the furthest deficit I’ve ever pulled from before.  Making them touch and go makes this an insanely long time under tension, which should bode well for growth.

 

Kroc rows are becoming more natural, as are the rows and shrugs against bands.  This is shaping up to be a solid back day.  I wanna try the progressive pulls I read about in “Purposeful Primitive” sometime, but I suppose it will need to wait.
