Sleep: 730p-4a  Good morning energy.
No sugar yesterday, but a glass of delicious egg nog today.

Training 8am:
Warm-up: 150 DUs for time. Rest 20s with every trip.  3:17.  Thought I was going to go sub 3 today which would have been a PR, but then I tripped @ 149.  Doh!
~20m x 2: side shuffle, carioca, power skip, A-skip, bounding. 2x10m/leg single leg bounding.  Significantly more challenging on the left.
A1. RDL to just below knee cap @ 4111; 6,6,4,4,3; rest 20 sec
6x165lbs, 6x175, 4x185, 4x195, 3x205 (video)
A2. Seated DB Overhead Press parallel grip @ 31X1; 2-5 x 5; rest 2 min
5x35lbs, 2x40(F on 3), 2x40(F on 3), 5x35, 5x35lbs 35 felt smooth after attempts at 40.
B. Bent Over BArbell Row @ 2010; 8-12 x 3; rest 2 min 12x55lbs, 9x65lbs (Missed chest @ 10), 12x65lbs (video to follow)

Training 11/10/11

Sleep: 7p-4a I love daylight savings!  It's pitch black by 6p now & we were in bed by 6:45. Some sips of decaf, but never finished my travel mug.

Day 1 no sugar.  I'm not setting any specific goals here on how long I'm looking to not have sugar.  I just needed to draw a line in the sand for myself and despite this also being day 1 of my cycle I'm surviving just fine. :)

Coaching 5:30-8:00 PD floor, Each set was interrupted as we were short on help for coaching, but I did not want to wait until noon when clients cleared out.
Warm-up: 5 min row @ 2:20 pace (1070m). Felt comfortable.  I'm working to develop a better relationship with the rower.

A1. RDL to just below knee cap @ 4111; 4-6 x 4; rest 20 sec First time doing this so wasn't sure where to start. 6x135, 145, 155, 165lbs (video to follow).  I totally overlooked the 1s pause @ the bottom & not sure if they are slow enough to be considered a 4s ecc.


A2. Seated DB Overhead Press parallel grip @ 31X1; 4-6 x 4; rest 2 min. 6x30lbs, 35lbs (video), 35lbs, 35lbs.  Left arm struggles more.  Worked really hard for that 6th rep on the last set.  It must have been a 4s lift.
9:30am
B. Bent Over BArbell Row @ 2010; 12-20 x 3; rest 2 min
C. SL Back Ext's @ 3022; 4-7/leg x 3/leg; rest 45 sec b/t sets
