Grasping at the Barbell Immortals

Haha, is that all you have to say? I just bitched for 300 words about that nastiness!

How long did this workout take you? I didn't even get to the GPP-- I was 1:45 in by the time I finished the Deads....

I should've wrote "2 count paused deads-(these are hard...that's what she said)". No, but seriously, I was saying shit out loud at the gym right after completing a set, like "Are you fucking kidding me!" and "Son of a bitch!"

I think it took me 2 hours.

My macros made me do it:

56g Mozzarella cheese with 14g butter, microwaved
41g psyllium husk (that's like 5 servings, good god), 2 scoops of whey, 28g of coconut oil, and water

I pray to Brodin that I never have to do this again, although the cheese and butter was pretty good.

The psyllium husk/whey/coconut oil concoction would soak up all the water and get super-thick. I'd have to keep adding water, which just made the pain be drawn out. Sort of like when I was 14 and I drank a bottle of bacardi mixed WITH WATER, because I thought the diluted taste would make it easier to chug.

Doesn't matter, got macros.

Joined a 2nd gym that is next to my house for compliance reasons with respect to getting my conditioning done.

5 minute treadmill warmup
hiit 20s/1:40 x 10 on C2 Rower @ damper = 6
10 minute treadmill cooldown.

I feel like a dumbass paying for two gyms, but you gotta do what you gotta do. Priorities!

The 2nd gym is an L.A. Fitness, so the "scenery" is better.

What I'm trying to say is: boobs.

I took short rests. It was bitter sweet.

Why the Yates row? I've been wondering what that is and I finally looked at the video-- why do you prefer or pick that row?

How much weight are you using for the Good Mornings?

Squats tomorrow!
