28 Minutes of Stretching
Comments: I guess it was an okay workout. Did it today since PA is supposed to get hammered with snow tomorrow and Saturday. Squats were similar to last deload workout; some sets felt good and others felt iffy. Yoke was similar to last time but it felt like ton on my back the first two sets. Farmer's were nice and easy.
Having some time to reflect on these past two contests I've come to realize a few things. It is possible for me to do two contests in the same month but it is very stressful and I'm not talking about just the physical aches. Each contest day is a series of adrenaline peaks and troughs over several hours as opposed to an event training day where the peak is maintained for a short period. The final test will be to see how long it takes to fully recover from this one too. Obviously this would be something done sparingly. I figure the ultimate test in this regard for an amateur competitor would be two two-day contests with four weeks of each other.
