Notes: 2:00 between sets of everything.  I was feeling pretty beat up and a little on the weak side coming in, but the 2:00 workouts are the ones where you just hold on and see where it takes you, which is exactly what I did.  Good showing.  Very pleased with the incline benching.

I am loving swings with the 40kg bell: totally different than light bell swings.  Definitely going to be a regular feature.  I've got a plan for later today's conditioning session I'm gonna call "Cannibal Meat Eater", blending together Meat Eater II from Tactical Barbell with my own brand of Insanity.   10 rounds of 10 swings and 10 Devil's presses.  Should be a blast.

Mowed the lawn for an hour, then did

AM WORKOUT II (1000)

Cannibal Meat Eater

10 rounds of

10 KB swings w/40kg bell

10 devil's presses w/20lb DBs

1 minute rest between rounds

Time: 23:20

Notes: Like a lot of TB work, this one is sneaky.  I thought about running it without rest, but decided to go RX first and see how it went.  Fatiguing, but not lung breaking, which I imagine was the goal.  Gonna up the weight and maybe do 45 second rests next time, but this is another keeper.  

Gonna get in a run with the Mrs in the evening, then Juarez Valley before my early shift tomorrow.

PM WORKOUT (1730)

3 mile run with the Mrs

Good way to wrap up the day
