1/22/15 Summary & a Doughnut

It happens that I know what I did, and how I did it, but it's easiest at this point to summarize what I've done since, as always, I let the blog lapse.

Largely because of time constraints and angry shoulders, I took time off, squatted and left, and some days hit the program minimum.  I squatted a mere 6,265 pounds in the last week or so leaving my totals thusly:


2015 YtD squat volume: 38,220 pounds
2015 YtD squat tons: 19
2015 YtD burpees: 230
2015 YtD pull ups: 41
2015 YtD Winchell's cinnamon crunch doughnuts: 3

The biggest thing, really, is that I ate a cinnamon crunch doughnut yesterday.

All this is uninteresting, I'm sure, except perhaps for the doughnut, so I will break down today.


1/22/2015 Squat and leave, promise a buddy waiting on me I'd be in the gym 15 minutes or less.

Here I cheated a bit, I didn't start the timer until I had changed and placed an empty bar in the rack.

5 x 135
5 x 225
2 x 315
2 x 335
2 x 355

Total time: 8:30

I felt good today and thought about hitting another heavier double or even a single, but I kind of liked the idea of cutting it short.

I do have some meaningful blog post ideas, and will execute as time allows so for now I'll leave you with the musical study I made today.
