Though a bit rushed due to having to make my flight at DFW, had a lot of fun training with Niki, Brent, Tom, Carmen, and Fox at WFAC today before heading out. After the tiring weekend, I was glad to get some decent work in. Still not feeling near the top of my game, but certainly better than my most recent upper body focused day last Thursday.
Press
195x5 @ 8.5
205x5x2 @ 9.75, 9
165x10@9.5
Notes: Still not feeling super strong, but better than Thursday. First set at 205 was a little loose. Locked it in better for the second set, with a bit of coaches' eye from Brent.
Bench Press
315x5x3 @ 9, 8.5, 9
245x11 @ 9.5
Notes: Felt OK here, too. Not great but OK.
BW Chins
5 sets of 10
Notes: Last two sets got a bit hard.
That was all I had time for. Drove back with Brent, who completed a great TM Volume day of 340x5x5 squat, 145x5x5 press, and some purposely sub-max pulls of 335x5 and 365x3 in advance of his mock meet on Friday in preparation for the Iron Fest at Crossfit Gantry. Niki also had some solid lifts, and I got to spot the bench press of the one and only Comrade Campitelli. A fine finish to a great weekend, and then ran into Alex and Steve at the airport. Now, back to the grind.
