met up with some local boys for the first time tonight and we took this on together. i considered scaling the load but decided to push on and accept a lower total score in the name of "rx". actually i just need to work on the deadlift and with a current 1rm of 365 this load was just heavy enough to keep me in singles while hopefully increasing my tolerance at higher weights. pushups were all unbroken and over half the box jumps were as well. those two were relatively easy. this was a deadlift workout for me, plain and simple.
11 rounds + 2 deadlift
thanks to jason and via for the camaraderie and invite to work alongside you on this painful, grinding journey. not 100% on you guys' scores but i believe jason finished 16 with a few seconds to spare and via had 9 plus some deads.
now, we'll see how close my deadlift technique is over the next couple days. not feeling too bad right now but lower back soreness can creep in fast. i'm hoping it will be the hamstrings instead. i think that means i'm headed in the right direction. we'll see...
