Notes: Back on earlies.  I honestly prefer this shift, as it's minimal disruption to my nutrition and lifestyle.  I'm slightly weaker training very first thing in the morning, but whatever.

Main and supplemental work were pretty straight forward.  With next week being the 5s week, I think I'm gonna steal a page from Paul Kelso and pause the first 2-3 reps of the set and then gun out the rest.  

152 reps on the Poundstones, at 1 rep added per week, marks a full year of progressing on it.  I genuinely think this movement is one of the best things I've ever done for my physique, as it truly is a full torso workout when it's all said and done.  It's also now taking up WAY more time than it should, so I might throw on some 2.5s and start back at 100 next go round.  

Got in the majority of the daily work while I was there.  No conditioning, but got some time later for something quick.  Hamstrings feel like piano wire: I'm actually sore from the BBB squats.  Kinda cool.

PM WORKOUT (1500)

Notes: Just wanted to get some blood flowing so the legs would feel fresh for tomorrow.
