Past couple of days, 1 of them great!!

Sunday I woke up feeling like shit, I should have just stayed in bed. But I tried to do what I could. Wasn't much.

Power Cleans
135 x 2
155 x 2
175 x 2

I really gotta work on these or just go back to muscling them up.

210 each hand x 25 feet
240 each hand x 25 feet
280 each hand x 25 feet I was warming up with shorter distances hoping I would have more grip left turns out it didn't matter.

Axle Clean and Press
110 x couple
160 x 5
190 x 5
210 x 3
230 x 5 left a few in the tank, to say I was happy with this is an understatement. My overhead press has been in the shitter for close to year. But now that I have let my weight stay constant for a couple months it seems things are turning around. I am setting my goal for a 1 rep PR for october.

12" base squats
225 x 2 x 5 sets

So Ian was doing stones and I figured why not do a few.

310 x 1
I was gonna do much but I knew if I did the 310 it would fire Ian up enough to hopefully load up the damn thing, and it did.

Chest supported rows
5 sets x 6 reps

Nothing special, better than nothing.
