Notes:

* @TrainForPain ‘s favorite day of the program, haha.  Gotta dig my X-men headband.

* Made an effort to hang my head off the bench on the skullcrushers when possible to really increase the ROM.  I caught myself raising my head to meet the axle, which kinda defeats the purpose.  Trying hard to keep my elbows in place on both movements and make the arms the real driver.

* Getting a slightly better pump on this.  Part of me imagines the issue I run into is it’s day 4, which means I’m pretty far away from the last time I had any carbs.  But I’d honestly rather have this day be the dud vs the others.  In general I think Jamie really structured this program well.

* Poundstone curls are not prescribed, but hitting them after 10x10 axle reverse curls is absolutely incredible.  I might finish out with some band pushdowns next time too to get that tricep pump.

* That conditioning workout I came up with was outstanding.  The last time I did the short distance keg carries with the burpee chin it didn’t quite hit right, but this one was brutal inside of 4 minutes, and afterwards I did the Dan John thing and just put the bell down and walked out the door.  Trying to just get in the walking where I can in my schedule.

* On that note, got in a little walk/run with the family last night as well.
