February 24, 2021 Upper Body

Blah on the 255, thought I'd get 4 for sure...Split jerks went well here. Threw some slow pullups in here too...toasted my lats. Too much volume here though, moving the carries to end of leg day, those shouldn't hit my upper body enough to impact this session.

 Not bad...Thought I was going to die on the 355 squat set. Also rotated calves in here since I moved the overhead carries to full body day.  I think next week I'll do the suitcase carries here as well, too much volume on upper body day this week (see tomorrow's entry)

 Treacherous....footprints are covered with snow so you can't see them, and they're frozen so it's like hitting a landmine...

I led off with hanging power snatches here, something I'll continue doing. It helps get the blood flowing and loosens everything up, so I should really be doing them before deadlifting.  One note, on sternum pullups my shoulders hurt for some reason, had to cut the sets short each time.  They feel fine afterward, so not sure what that was about.  Lastly, I moved snatch-grip overhead carries here, since I had been doing them on leg day at the end. But they tax my shoulders pretty hard, and I'm wondering if there was lingering fatigue when I would do my upper-body workout the next day.  Since I snatched earlier in the workout I can't get the 140 up again, so had to use 130.

My lungs felt horrible here, it felt like I was breathing molasses and they just couldn't keep up.  Maybe I ate too soon beforehand? It didn't really feel like that though.  Not sure what happened, regardless I couldn't get the full 3 miles in.

 I headed over to the track to see how much snow there was....there was quite a bit still, and there's frozen footprints, covered by more snow, that sort of acted like landmines.  Fortunately the football field in the middle was partially plowed so I ran on that.

I didn't have much time here...also I felt bloated. Not sure why. Anyway, I dialed back weight on first two sets of benching, which let me get 5 reps on 250 here, so up to 255 next week.
