1 30 min walk
Did alot of specific activations to chekc firing patterns and breathing. More on this later.
I was going to work on some kind of lifting to get back into the breathing while training. All week been practicing with a small amount of water held in the mouth to keep me breathing through the nose. It is pretty dramatic the recovery inprovment and additionally the nasal breathing gets more diaphragm working.
It was only MIke and me and he wanted to do some yoke walks. I talked him into some shitty car carry strap walk. A yoke carry of some sorts I would call it but different. Here are my sets
Two 35 yard walks with 270
Two 35 yard walk-1 with 370, drop set to 270
Three 35 yard walks- 1 with 470lb, 1 with 370lb, 1 with 270lb
We then pulled out the new stretcher sled and loaded it with 300lb(reminds me of the old 300lb chain drag except worse. )
3 35 yard drags with half backwards and half forwards. Tried some wide stance and some close stance on the forwards one.
Held the water in the entire time. really forced the air down solidifying the body

7/4
Candy Cardio 3 laps descending weight on sled each lap. 2 plates, 1.5 plates and 1 plate laps. 1 lap walk off/Recovery. I call it candy cardio as the name gives it away but due to large quantities on both Wed night and Thursday. Candy Cardio is generally punishment fo this bad behavior but lately my BP has been a touch high so I figured I would throw this in to. Been thinkin' of adding in a hard session once a week anyhow but really wanted to make sure I gave the 3 10 mins walks a day a fair shot solely on its own. I plan to continue these, just add in one hard session. So this took about a hour to knock down on the 4th. Put on my KC Royals Drunk hat and partied down.

Non eventful bench action. Shoulder is a angry and told me so when I started benching with the bandbell bar today. Managed 5x3 with 3 plates, 2x3 with 30 more pounds. Ended with 3 and half plates for 2x4
Broke out the Rhino bandbell bar for 4 board presses with close grip. 3 and half plates for 2x5, 4 platesx5, 4 and half plates for one. Capped it there for shoulder's sake. Ha

Floor pulls with the White Rhino Bandbell Bar. 5 x3 conventional, 5x3 sumo. Did a lower eccentric touch and go with all sets. 1x3 at 5 and half plates. Used the Squat buddy and Hatfield strap on the sumo. Plan was to be sorta of speedy with the white rhino bar but it was so so on the speed part. Happy with the workload on this.

Double Conventional swings worked up to 106sx 5 reps
Been doing a light Wed to save it fro Saturday training but this week was also video week where I dressed up in a unicorn tank top and runner shorts. This video was a sweating with the spud segment
. I set up a strongman medley outside that was terrible.
1Yoke carry with our swing set straps and new safety squat strap after each of the medley runs which consisted of :
a/Tire carry with farmers handles
b/ Car Carry strap with 270lb total
c/Tug of War sled strap for drags
Sprintish back after each event. 100% awful. Probably one of the worse ever plans. Cramped in the hams and adds the rest of the day.
