9-Jul
AM
row 500m @2:01
rest 3 min
x8
2:02.3, 2:03.1, 2:03.9, 2:04.1, 2:06.0, 2:09.  Called it after 6 that were way off pace.  
Once again I learn how much I rely on proper fueling.  I would get about 40s into each set and my thighs would just burn at a pace that felt effortless the week prior.   I have had some busy days and not prioritizing food prep enough.  As such didn't eat a whole lot Monday and Monday evening I picked at dinner and then crashed before any of the usual evening ice cream.  Woke up hungry on Tuesday.  Had a banana and PB which is typical pre-workout meal these days, but wasn't enough and didn't have much time to get more in beforehand.  
On the positive note I was the most accepting of the situation and didn't mentally beat myself up over any of the sets.  I consider these mental PRs.  :) 


PM
A. Incline DB bench press; 8-10x5; rest 2 min
25, 35, 40, 40, 40 x 10.  All the 40s were really tough so never attempted 45s.

60 min z1 work  Got in about 20 minutes (had alloted time for ~40) and then new client came early so called it. Worked on some 1-arm FC for 30m at a time and made it up to 75lbs...lots of work to do on this.  Also practiced WW, windmills, 2 for 1 wall balls with 10lbs to 10'....tough.

13-Jul
AM
10 min airdyne for max calories
The last two times I've done this I went somewhat conservative from the start.  This time I decided to attack more...but then I got to the first minute and only had 19 vs the 21 cals the first two times I did it.  So needless to say I'm a bit dampened at the moment.  Holding on to mental clarity and working to be as productive as possible with my time, but certainly not as well rested as I have been in recent months.  I'm putting in the work and keeping perspective. 
Min 1: 19
2:30 mark: 42
5 min: 77
7:30: 112-114ish
9 min: 135-137
10: 159..rolled over to 160. 
Not trashed after just no dig.  

430PM...had been at the gym since 7a and motivation was low. 
A. Squat clean; build to a 2rm 125, 145, 155, 165-missed  second rep. Felt like I should have had it.  Decided to go up to 170 and then I took forever to try and get myself pumped up for it. I stood at the bar forever and flashed back to a conversation with Corey about deciding when to dig and when not to dig.  So I called it.  I went over to shut off the video and realized I had been trying to psych myself up for the lift for over 2.5 minutes.  I think it was the right decision. 

B. Hang squat snatch; build to a 10rm without dropping the bar
75x10, few at 85, 95x10 called it.  Not motivated but...during the reps I was remembering how hard it used to be for me to get any reps at 95lbs.  Seems like not that long ago.  :) 

C. 100 barbell walking lunges for time 65#
Summer Crush Qualifier Week 2
AMRAP in 8 min: 
1, 3, 5, 7, 9, ....
Box hurdle (20")

Moved steady and ub til last set of box jumps. Completed round of 15 plus 17 box jumps. 

PM-short hike with mom and muts.
