Dips
34+6 (rest pause between set)

Notes: Only rested long enough to change plates for the main work, with a 2 minute rest before the final set.  TM is exactly where it needs to be.  Paused on the final rep of the final set of the 5x5 work just to see if I was still in control and it all checked out.  Was on the fence on what to do for press assistance, but the mechanical advantage dropset seems to be very "me", so I'm sticking with it for now. Pleased to get in a full training session and all my daily work before the family got up: heckuva way to kick off a weekend right.  Now to eat well and big.  I'm feeling like I'm on the right side of things, but, of course, my work is calling in away in early Feb.  Will need to ensure I pack VERY well for that trip.  It's not too long, but long hours can easily pull me off course with nutrition.

PM WORKOUT (1300)

Axle Grace

3:35 (15 second PR)

Tabata KB snatches w/45lb KB

Notes: Brought the kiddo in the gym with the instruction to help count reps on Grace, just so we could bond.  They skipped rep 23, so it was a good thing I was keeping count.  Will gladly take them as my judge for my next comp, but I legit wonder if I did better on Grace because I had an audience.  Tabata snatches continue to be just a solid thing for me.  I really dig the KB snatch.  Maybe my next purchase will be a heavier bell.
