Comments: Training was a bit off today. Started out in Chambersburg at the Stable with sled pulls. I was trying out my new rock climbing shoes and they suck on gravel. I tried getting low on the pulls and I'd lose my footing so I switched to my wrestling shoes and it made a world of difference. After the set with 1500lbs, I was dead. I had trouble getting up and it took a lot out of me. Joe gave me a Propel packet to mix in water to see if that would help and it did a little. I crushed 440lbs on the zercher yoke carries but since my sled pulling had taken up a lot of time, I only had time for one more set. I jumped to 620lbs and I barely got it up and walked about 20'. I wanted to call it there but luckily Joe and my dad kept me going and I did a drop set with 530lbs and then 440lbs. I felt tired, sore and like a canvas bagged full of smashed buttholes. I was pissed off with my sluggishness/weakness (I haven't felt this off since Clash of the Titans in January). So I was kind of stewing on the drive back home and felt that I couldn't just leave it at two events. So I did some random crap. We have a volleyball trainer that is adjustable to an extent so I took this duct taped ball of plates and threw it over it. That went pretty well, besides the one time it slipped out of my hands. I wanted to do some pressing so I set up my light thick bar on the chain yoke. Apparently this is going to be in a contest (not one I'll be doing). Really unstable, especially when I tried to get leg drive. Probably a better idea to just strict press this in the future. Then I brought out the oil drum. It is an awful thing. I almost got to 50' with 324lbs but I just couldn't repick it. I tried three times but I couldn't get it up high enough to put it in my lap. Long day, did stretching afterward.
