Notes:

* Now that my competition is no longer happening in 2 weeks and I’m still slated to go on a cruise, I’m just going to run Juggeryoke for 2 more weeks (since Jamie has called it both a 6 week AND 8 week program) with a few changes as a proof of concept test for future runs.  In that regard, I really like the SSB front squat (big shock there) since I have far less slippage issue to deal with, but I can tell that, if I get lazy, I lose out on the upright torso and just let my body crumple forward, which is a unique training effect, sure, but not really what we’re going for with Juggeryoke.  Still, I think I’ll give it at least A training cycle, and be willing to move back and forth between that and a barbell.  I am surprisingly pretty comfortable with the axle, which I can thank Easy Strength for.  Weighted dips continue to just be awesome.

* Sticking with the EMOM format.  I like how honest it keeps me with rest times.  I am moving quick through this, but it’s decently heavy.  When I need to get stronger, I can up the weight and increase the rest times.

* That conditioning workout was clutch.  Lotta suffering in 10 minutes.

       

* Feeling the best I ever have after a competition.  Recovery is on point.  Going with a mini-famine approach leading up to this cruise so I can totally debase myself nutritionally.
