PM WORKOUT

Notes: 3:45 between giant sets. Super lower motivation in the AM workout, which came about as a result of a last minute “honey do” that interfered with the schedule, and when I went for the back off set I just had nothing in me, so I rested a few hours and had lunch, then came back at it. I was actually planning on hitting bodyweight at 195 and going for 50 ala Dan John, but my head wasn’t on right and I calculated my Buffalo Bar weight as though it were a swiss bar. So at least the weight was heavier, which made only getting 40 in the first go a bit less demoralizing. Rest paused it and got the 50 to prove a point to myself.
The “keg high pulls” are a bit tongue in cheek, as I was supposed to clean them but just had no pop in me. I blame it on the press workout done about 12 hours beforehand. Still mainlining calories and refusing to believe in overtraining.
The topset is 5lbs more than I did last time I did 12. Little chipshot PR, as I need to start getting those on these workouts again. It’s amazing how much I just despise squatting with a barbell vs the SSB. If only it didn’t make me stronger.
