Time - 20:50

Closest I've been to puking during a workout, possibly ever. Everything was just really tough today, especially after the PR Press & those HEAVY thrusters. I did this workout a year ago, on 6.10.9, in 21:35. I was hoping to crush my old time, but given the workload today and still beating the old time by 45sec., I guess that's pretty good. I rested way too much and just all around was not having a good time. Plus, I'm pretty sure last year's workout involved a 32" Box Jump, but not certain. However, I do know that it sure as shit was not 37".

So, all in all, this Machine has certainly been upgraded from a year ago. Progress Baby, Progress...

My good buddy that I train with, and also Coach, has been seeing some excellent progress under my programming as well. He strict pressed 200# today which is a 25# PR. Yes, I said it, 25#...

  1. I knew this was trouble when you started a training blog. I'm going to be tempted to try all of these now. Gave this one a go today - 21:17.

    Post 5/3/1 squat session at 335x5, 355x3, and 375x2, so I guess I'm pleased. These workouts you come up with are brutal.

  2. Nice work, Greg. I think our strength work beforehand may have taken it's toll on both of us...
