ME Lower 7

Warm-up:
walking to gym in insane heat
overhead squats
front squats
good mornings

5x5 overhead squats (85,95,3x105)

3-3-3-3-3-3-3-1-1 deadlifts (205,225,3x245,255,265,275,285 [just missed lockout])

4x12 face pulls (30,3x35)

For whatever reason, couldn't bring myself to box squat today cause I had deadlifting on the brain. 275 went up very easy, but I ran out of gas on 285. I have a fairly strong preference using the over-under grip (left facing up), was using the preferred 2-1 in the last sets. Should avoid this next time so I don't develop some weird hunchback walk.

Nice job Brian, you're getting those DL weights up there. I think just walking around in this weather is warmup enough...

Are you back?

Scott is back and better than ever. We're going to go for some makeup punishment tomorrow. Too much of the good life requires a little karmic balance...

Would today's WOD count as punishment?

Three rounds for time of:
45 pound Thruster, 50 reps
35 Pull-ups

We were cosidering that this morning, but after I did a few rounds of the barbell complex I realized that many thrusters may not be feasible this early. Blog post to come (in like 2 minutes)
