Notes: With this being the final workout of the program and there being no reason to hold anything back, I pushed far into the tower today. 81 total reps of front squats, and boy did I feel them. This is another just plain magical workout. With the heatwave returning to the area I legitimately feel like I’m drying by the end of it.

Program write up coming soon. I am feeling the best I’ve felt in a LONG time. Not physically of course. In that regard, I’m absolutely at my limit. I have to take excederin after every workout now because of the exertion headaches and my caffeine intake is way up to help fight that off and I move like the Tin Man first thing in the morning. But psychologically, emotionally, “spiritually”, however you want to put it, I’m in the best space I’ve been in a LONG time. I feel like a college kid again. I’ve got an arrogant swagger about me. I constantly think about how absolutely indestructible I am. I am laser focused and dialed in. Just an absolute great spot to be in, and this happened the last time I ran Deep Water. Good lesson to learn.

I actually have a weekend this weekend. I’m gonna get in some keg carries and bodyweight conditioning stuff and start up the new program on Monday ideally.
