This felt real good. Good speed and great balance. Looking forward to the event next weekend.

Atlas Stone
Worked one motioning the stone...last time before next week.

Ginger and Donnie joined me again. Ginger did clean & press, squats, horizontal pull-ups and push-ups. Donnie did clean & press, plyometrics, squats, farmers walk, atlas stone, push-ups and pull-ups.

Here is Donnie's stone lifts...listen for the loud fart he lets after the 5th lift

This will be my last heavy deadlifting till the contest. Ended on a great note the 635 pull is a 10# PR for training. The bar I use in training is a lot stiffer then the bar in the contest, so I am excited about the event.

This was not a good workout, the axle just didn't feel good. I think the yoke on Saturday took more out of me then I realized. So I decided to go back and do it again after lunch...

Axle Clean & Press Load- 3,228
1x6_130
1x3_218
1x1_262
1x1_306
1x1_326
missed 350...decided to just go for it and see what would happen. My grip was shot at this point and I couldn't get the clean.

The second time around felt much better.

My truck died on me this morning so I was late getting to the gym so I put off the heavy axel until tomorrow. I did do some light back work...seated rows & pull-ups so the day wasn't a total wash.
