PMenu WOD, Day 1, Week 2, Strength 2

Warm-up:
good mornings
back squat (to triples at 155#)

Performance Menu WOD 102008
5x3 back squat (high-bar ~85%; 225)
3x3 clean pull (~115%; 225)
5x4 push press (~83%; 120)

3x2 deadlift (315)
4x1 clean (135,155,2x185)
3x max strict pullups (15,10,8)

Nice workout, just took a long time. The weights felt really right today. That is, heavy enough to feel stressful, but not so heavy that things weren't moving reasonably fast. I never got the ab-work in. Tomorrow morning.

It was like the twilight zone at the gym today. In the 2 years I've been there, I have seen two people deadlift; that's right, two. And it's not like those two people deadlifted repeatedly. I saw each of them deadlift once. Today, in addition to me, there were three people deadlifting. Crazy. A trend, perhaps?
