Well, here we go with the OHS again, my favorite movement (sarcasm) Although it is not my least favorite. I probably don't favor it as much because it kicks my ass, but that's a good thing.

STRENGTH:

Completed OHS at the Rx % and Rx Reps and Sets
No failures, although the last set stumbled back a little but kept the weight up and
finished the reps. Felt good that I was able to complete this again the Rx %, felt a little
better than last week. % = 165LB/75KG

Completed the CL-PL at the Rx % and Rx Sets and Reps.
I was able to do this fine, just worked on speed of the hips and trying to get as high as possible without pulling too much with elbows bent. % = 190 LBS/86.36KG

Completed the DL at Rx % and Rx S & R.
Not much of a problem here, felt good with this just like last week. However, the bar felt a little slick. Couldn't find the chalk in the gym today which affected grip a little. Completed with good form though, without curling back. % = 335LB/152.27KG

CONDITIONING

Completed the Rounds as RX

Swings
Chin-Ups
DU

Time: 12:57

Took a little longer than wanted to cause I had to use a fat bar pull-up bar that spins a little. Forced me to come off the bar and re-grip more than I wanted to. Oh well!!

Overall I felt good about today's effort and am really liking this strength period.
