After a rest day Wednesday, I came into the gym with a lot of energy but my body still hurting pretty good from Monday and Tuesday's work. Today ended up being a grind but one that I fought through. Started it out with ME deadlifts at 5 x 3. Sets looked as follows:
-3 x 315
-3 x 335
-3 x 355
-3 x 375
-2 x 385
I'm getting stronger but still have a ways to go as I'm about 30 or 40 pounds below my previous best. I should've gone for the 3rd rep at 385 but rep 2 came up slow and I felt like I rounded out which was enough to call it good.
After the deads, I went after "Mini-Nancy." It was 3 rounds afap of:
-400m run
-15 overhead squats, 115#
time=7:19
I was bummed not to go sub-7 here as I had a legitimate chance, just couldn't keep the pace on the 3rd run. But was still otherwise pleased, especially since I went after this one alone and without anyone to chase. I pushed myself hard. All the squats were unbroken and couldn't have been much faster. Just need to continue to improve my conditioning in regards to locomotion.
