Rows were tougher than usual this morning, it was hard to keep the pace at a steady 2:04. I was more comfortable pulling at either 2:03 or 2:05, it was difficult to find a good pace today. 

My handstand holds are definitely getting better, this is the second week in a row I've been able to hold longer than :20. 

Really happy with the push jerk/split jerk, 185 is only five pounds under my current push jerk PR. Everything was crisp. 

The deadlift/HS walk workout was tougher than I thought it would be. Originally I was going to break up both sets of deadlifts into 10/5 but once I got going on the first set I just did all fifteen unbroken. HS walk was 45'/45' unbroken both ways. I broke up the second set of deadlifts 10/5, I could feel my lower back starting to light up and my cycle time was slowing down. This was a fun one. 

Guess what wasn't fun? The assault bike and burpees. Ew man, this combo is a real b-hole. I tried to hold 60 RPM on the assault bike and my legs were jello when I got to the burpees. Conner and Marcus Filly did three rounds of this in like nine minutes! It would take me at least twelve minutes to do that. I know it's coming, mostly because Stephen already told me I would be doing it at some point and because that's where my programming seems to be heading. RIP me. RIP my legs.
