Lightweight

Yawn! I was completely lacking in energy today. Not for the first time, I thought I'd had a good night's sleep, but by mid-afternoon I was starting to nod off.

Bear complex x 3
1 power clean, 1 front squat, 1 push press, 1 back squat, 1 rack press
65, 75, 80, 85 (2), 85 (2)

For both attempts at 85lb, I managed to get the bar overhead with the third rack press, but couldn't lock out with my right arm. Pretty damn close both times, though.

======

Power snatches
65 x 3
75 x 3
80 x 3
85 x 3
90 x 3
95 x 1, 0

Even though I didn't set any PRs with my snatches, I do think my form was better than it has been in a while.

======

Alternating standing dumbbell curls
1 set of 20s x 10 per arm
3 sets of 25s x 10 per arm

Pretty unspectacular day, but I just couldn't get my mojo going!

Full body

I'm sorry... what?
Felt pretty wiped out from an active weekend, so I wasn't trying to set an world records today.

Bear complex x 3
1 power clean, 1 front squat, 1 push press, 1 back squat, 1 rack press
65, 75, 80, 85 (2), 85 (2)

With both sets at 85lb I failed with the third rack press. So close!

======

Power snatches
65 x 3
75 x 3
80 x 3
85 x 3
90 x 3
95 x 1

That's one less rep at 95lb than last time, but I think my form was better today. It felt like there were fewer press outs than I often resort to.

======

Amrap 12
5 military presses @ 70
10 push presses @ 70
15 push ups
Score = 4 rounds + 5 military presses

I did this a long time ago, improving by only 5 military presses today. Usually, I would be pissed off or frustrated by this but, like I said, I'm bloody exhausted from Saturday's workout and the 5k yesterday. I think I'm going to need a rest day tomorrow.
