Block 10, Wave 3 - OH
Today was good, not just because I did good to quite good on everything, but even better because I remembered to implement all planned changes due to the fact that I actually went back and checked my training notebook (a novel idea, I know). Also, I wrecked shop on conditioning, which points to my recent improvements not being a fluke. Time will tell if this translates to me not dying next time I train with Steve at Iron Athletics.

Despite the fact that I am getting stronger/better on reverse hypers, I am sucking the hind teat at present on regular hypers (45 degree back extensions). This serves to show me that I need to do these a minimum of twice a week and three times would be better. It is still my funky sacralized side of my low back that gets blown up fast with fatigue, so it seems that I don't use that side as much in the course of doing other exercises due to the increased bony stability compared to my normal side.
At this point in training, I headed to the Unit to do conditioning with the prowler. I'll bring my baby home to the garage gym once I am able to train snatch and clean and jerk at home base.
Prowler Push
10x100' x prowler + 90 - My only rest was a 100' walk between 100' pushes, so this was somewhere between a 1:1 and 1:2 work to rest ratio.
