No trouble getting up this morning.
Added a d-aspartic acid, fenugreek, maca supplement. I'll take this for the next 12 days. So now my daily regime includes the above, ubiquinol (Q-10), vitamin D, zinc citrate, fish oil and creatine. And protein of course. We'll see how things feel in 2 to 3 months.
More than a little surprised to be doing back squats again, after Monday's 5x5 heavy and Tuesday, 150 air squats in "Nasty Girls" I wasn't expecting any additional leg work this week.
So 5 sets of 3 reps, at 95% of 5 rep max or more. I worked with Kamil who is usually stronger than I am, but after his 3rd child's birth in early December, this was his first day back.
We warmed up with empty bar, the right to 135#, then 185# (had I known at this point that it was his first day back I might have gone up more slowly, but he's young, he'll recover).
Working sets were 205#, 215#, 215#, 225# and 225#. Kamil did 215# on the fourth set and saved the 225# for the last only.
Was happy with that. I had no trouble at 225# for 3, I think I need to retest my 1 rep max.
Naturally having done heavy dead lifts yesterday, the WOD had heavy dead lifts.
10 minute AMRAP:
6 toes to bar
8 dead lifts 205# barbell
12 wall balls 20# med ball
Opted for 185# on the barbell instead of 205#. Glad I did. First round was okay. Two first wall balls didn't hit the stupid wall. Second round, the t2b were impossible to string together.
Finished with 4 rounds plus 1 toes to bar.
Good workout.
Talked to Seb at the Y to see if I could get some coaching. He was power lifting expertise, so could be useful in the stage from my training.
