CONDITIONING

Tabata Rounds on BAS

Notes: Another press workout without blacking out.  It's frustrating how slowly I need to move on the topset to make that happen, but I imagine it's getting me strong to be so in control of the movement.  The 5x5s were just right, and the assistance work pumped me up real solid.  I've got confidence in my TMs moving into BBB Beefcake next cycle.  Plan to hit log viper Grace later today.

LUNCHTIME WORKOUT

Log viper Grace (135lbs)

5:43 (61 second PR)

Notes: Really got after it on this one.  Got through the first 15 reps without pause in 1:51.  Since it's a deload for deads tomorrow, was willing to put my lower back through a little hell with this.
