Holy shit, what a day. Part A went well, I got up to 175 which was a lot higher than I thought I would end up since I'm not great at catching in a squat. Once I got up to 175 I got the hang squat clean but then when I went to power clean it, I failed. What! I was pretty annoyed because I know I can clean that, so Stephen let me do it again and I got it the second time. The prowler sprints were fucking awful and awesome at the same time. Mostly awful. 30 seconds is a long time to continuously push that prowler at a relatively quick speed, the first round went well but by the third round I was dying, it became tough to keep pushing it for the last 10 seconds. It also took me awhile to recover from that before doing the airdyne sprints. Surprisingly those did not feel as terrible as last week but I still got that puke feeling near the end. The prowler mixed with the airdyne right after is a tough combination but I know it will make my engine so much better and I am starting to like the prowler even though I feel like it will kill me some day.
