Today was a good day. I was really happy with the 2RM power clean, I was really only expecting to get up to 180 at the most. 190 was pretty tough, I went for 195 but it was basically just a pull. The deadlift/burpee workout was fun. I went into it thinking I would be able to break up the deadlifts in sets of 5 but that went downhill after the 10th rep. By the end I was doing them in sets of 2, it was a lot tougher than I thought it would be. I had 5:00 to do the burpees. My legs were pretty worn out, I guess from the deadlifts? I'm not sure why they were so tired, but I knew I wasn't moving quite fast enough on the burpees. I was just trying to stay steady the whole time. With 1 minute left I had done 41 burpees and then Stephen said "get 15 burpees in the last minute" so I just shut my mind off and went. I was able to get 16 in the last minute and I was really happy about that, my lungs actually didn't feel terrible until the last few reps, it was mostly my legs that felt like shit. But overall I'm very pleased with my performance on this. I can tell I'm getting much better at just sucking it up and staying moving.
