A. Back Squat, 1 rep max.
- OK, no more screwing around with Low Bar BS. Today it's back to high bar. I was super psyched to get after this one today. I had a target # in mind and that was 315#. Last time I did a 1RM BS I hit 305....barely!! I knew I had it in me to blow that away and perhaps do even a bit more than 315. However; during my warm-up sets I reaggravated a strain in my Hip Flexor/Groin that originally flared up in last Sunday's competition. I probably should have shut it down but there was no way I was quitting before beating my PR!!!
- I did get 315# and it didn't feel super heavy except for the fact that it was pretty painful to go to rock bottom depth. I think I stopped just short of that but I believe I did break parallel. I definitely want to retest this once I get over this annoying muscle strain.
B. For Time of the following:
Row 1000 meters, Airdyne 150 Calories, Row 500 Meters, Airdyne 75 Calories
Last Time was: 17:59
- Today's time was 17:56. I guess I thought I would blow away my last time but it was not to be. I rowed the 1,000M piece at about a 1:40 pace. That used to be easy for me but didn't feel that easy today. The 75 Cal Airdyne seemed like it took forever. My strategy was to do :30 at a hard pace (between 300-350 watts) and then back off for :30 at about 150 watts. I think if I were to do this again and take significant time off, I'd have to suffer more on the Airdyne and just push harder.
