week 3, day 2 -- max lower
Gorgeous day.
Ndure, knee sleeves, Spud DL belt, dynamic work and bar work.
GHR, 2x10, 90s, a bunch of added weight at the chest
Squat, 8RM + back-off set, 120s between; weight was up significantly from last time
Front squat, 1x20, 120s after; used the SSB reversed so the pad was on my shoulders and clavicles, which I really like; lots of weight, but it was my wind that suffered.
While on the subject of sucking wind, it surprised me to be so badly out of wind. I can't tell you how many dozens of miles I hiked last week at 12000 feet -- you'd think I would have an easier time for a few days. Wasn't to be, as I saw stars and worried about what I'd hit on the way down. Oh well.
Superset:
- meadows t-bar row, 2x10 with lots of weight
- dragon flags, 2x8 -- gotta admit, I like these a lot
Moving in two weeks, packing madly until then. Contract job is suffering while I pack, etc. Interview with the big corpo concern is likely to be the week of the 2nd. A lot has to happen between now and then, and it's a mad rush. Last thing I'll dismantle and pack is the iron, though.
I bought Athletic Greens and will report once they arrive and I start to use. All reviews and personal anecdotes suggest it will be worth it. Going to make some significant dietary adjustments, too, which I will report on in some detail; I've decided to lean out to single digits, so we'll see what happens. I suspect it'll be relatively easy, actually. We will find out.
Hold fast, guys.
