20 Minutes of Stretching

Comments: Still a bit worn from last week’s workouts but I must go forward. Had to wait a bit to get a rack for lifting. Workout started with push presses up to a triple followed by speed triples. The increase in the triple’s weight was noticed. Still moving pretty good. Speed sets started out much the same as last week but I definitely knew I was feeling some fatigue about halfway through. Again, I followed this up with the circus dumbbell. I had a bit of unplanned downtime from push pressing to this as the bolt on the caps was stuff on the one end. Took quite a bit of monkeying around with other pieces of equipment to get the cap off. For warm-up purposes, I just did the empty bell for quickish singles. Other than a technique issue on the first set, it was much improved from last week. Best reps were definitely the third sets on both sides. Shoulders were super achy after this so I did some more sets to warm-up for my top two sets of dips. Big sweaty mess too. Pull aparts were a bit better than last week. Standing tates were odd this time as the first set the weight felt infinity times harder than last week. However, that feeling went away on the other two sets. Band scap work was quite good, the only issue being that my sweaty hands wanted to slip from the bands by the last set.
