Off to a Bradley Men’s Basketball game in just a bit.
I woke up early (of course) though I didn’t set the alarm.
And once again…I went to bed with high hopes and woke up with “OMG…everything hurts..workout is gonna suck!”
And it wasn’t entirely true.
Deadlifts (last “find my max” workout: (all done conventional except for the final set)
6 x 145
6 x 189
1 x 233 (not bad)
3 misses at 270; best one got almost to the knees..last miss was pulled from 45 plates so the problem is NOT the “off the ground” part)
My pull is weak.
5 x 233 (ok)
5 x 233 (easier than the first set?)
5 x 233 (harder than set 2; easier than set 1)
No, I didn’t bounce the sets; every rep was full stop, pause 1/2 second.
6 x 145 stiff legs.
That finished me off.
Then a walk on a sunny, 20-25 degree day: 5.65 miles in 1:27:20 (15:27 pace)
I was just over 31 at Sterling and just over 32 on the way back.
Not super fast, but ok following the deadlifts. Next time I make it 10K.
