  1. Front Squats? I missed that, woops. But Joey, I like the idea of mixing up squat form since we're doing them 3x per week -- easier on the connective tissue. Did back squats: 150x5x3 (a lot harder than 145), press: 65x5x3, and 10x3 lat pulldowns.

    Metcon in 4:50, dips got hard fast!

  3. Started easy today
    Front Squat:
    95x5
    115x3
    135x5
    155x5
    165x5
    175x5 - slightly rounded my back on the last rep.

    Press:
    45x5
    95x3
    105x5
    105x5
    115x5 - the last rep was a struggle but got it over my head.

    Metcon:
    7 Med ball slams (20lbs)
    5 ring dips - this is one of my weak movements so scaled it down and tried to stay legit.
    Did it in 5:40 mins.

    Good to be back!!

  4. Front Squat
    225x5 (x3)

    Back was rounding a good bit for reps 4 & 5 of each set. This was an ambitious weight for me.

    Press
    135x5 (x3)

    Pullups
    15-10-10

    Metcon
    7 med ball slams
    7 ring dips
    2:40

    Tried kipping with ring dips for the first time. It really helps as you approach failure.

    I think our greatest accomplishment was getting all of this done (with 2 mins/leg pigeon pose) by 7:30ish.
