All good here.

Negative Chins 3 minute AMRAP @ BW

13 good reps…. 15 total!
Last 2 reps dropped way too quick!

Hollow Hold

I’d forgotten how much fun these are!

Stretches.

Lunges felt ok but think I can get a better stretch here.
Toe touch is tough.
Definitely feeling it in the back of the knees and hamstrings. Less so in the lower back.

Summary

Long one… Back feeling good today.
No issues on any of the lifts.
Lois is also back on an LP after a few months out.

Tempo Squat

Resting 2 minutes.
All good here.
Pleased with these.
More in the tank but felt like a good starting point for RPE6.

Block Pull

Resting 2 minutes.
Feeling good here too.
Again, more in the tank but being conservative and focusing on form.

More open start position make me wonder if this might be more of a mobility issue than I initially thought.

Summary

All good today. Really pleased to be moving weight and not tightening up.

Bench 1xAMRAP @ 89

Resting 2 minutes.
All good.
6 on the top set.

Log Press 3XAmRAP @ 35

Resting 3 minutes.
No problems here.
Balance trouble on a few later reps probably down to fatigue.

Negative Chins 2:45 AMRAP

All good here. 14 total.
Last few dropping quickly as usual.

Summary

Good pressing. None of it seemed to aggravate anything in the lower back which must be good news.
Explanation attached to last sessions thread.

Log Push Press 1xAMRAP @ 59

Resting 3 minutes.
5 reps on the top set.
Feel like the arms could do more but the log crushes the wind out of you at the bottom of the rep after breathing at lockout.

Axle Bench 3xAMRAP @ 65

Resting 3 minutes.
12/12/10
All good here.

Pushups 1X2:30 AMRAP

22 reps.
Felt ok but hips probably still lagging.

Summary

Feeling better today. All lifts felt good.
Spent about an hour on Tuesday evening rolling/stretching out the legs/hips then did the same yesterday.
Will spend some extra time on Prehab tomorrow morning before starting any lifts and see how that goes.
