Notes: Not a PR on the Juarez valley, but a PR for that workout at that time of day, so that’s something. I fully intended to use 235lbs, and THOUGHT I had loaded that, until I unracked and went for the first rep and noted how heavy things felt. After getting through 8 reps, I quickly re-calculated, realized my mistake and decided to just go with it. Seems like it was the right call: solid workout.

My left hamstring is PISSED. Going to will it to heal today in time for the widowmaker tomorrow.

That EMOM daily work combo is pretty legit.

Had Tang Soo Do last night as well. We went over breakfalls/rollfalls. It’s been a LONG time since I did any of those, but they came back pretty quick. Hamstring wasn’t terribly happy in class. Noticed the impact of all the neck work I’ve been doing: my neck is filling out my dobak nicely. When combined with my overdeveloped traps, I’m really getting the yoke going.
