Fun Friday

Tried some max outs and not sure if I hit my 1RM's because I warmed up to them very incrementally but hit:
  • Back Squat: 225lb x2
  • Overhead Press: 120lb x2
I was impressed with both numbers - didn't expect to go that big on squats and I just lack confidence on the OHP's b/c my 5x5's are always difficult.

Then...

  • Squats: 2 x 5 x 160
  • Bench Press: 5 x 5 x 140
  • DB Clean & Press: 5 x 2/each side x 50 (sloppy looking presses I tells ya -- bad grade I guess: C ?)
  • Dips
    • Wasn't working... same joints or whatever that were tired and keeping me down. Did 2 sets of 5 right after Bench and wanted to punch myself in face but then got a mini circuit in and they were coming out a little better.
  • Mini Circuit (idea was to match #'s but failed on Dips -- see above)
    • Side bends x 15/each side x 45 (plate)
    • 15 Dips (1o)
    • Side bends x 10/ea
    • 10 Dips (7)
    • Side bends x 5/ea
    • 5 Dips (5)
Got a whole bunch of extras in too -- some V sit ups, a few weak sets of pulls and chins, hanging ab jonks, some tri stuff, etc etc ... was just having fun with it.

Good workout. Not gonna grade every exercise. Was a lot of fun, went long, got solid sweat. I needed it.
