I have been back and forth on whether I wanted to attempt my back squat PR set at 310 pounds today. Ultimately, I decided to go for it and see how it felt.

I had much higher hopes for my heavy back squat AMRAP today than I ended up getting. I think it's because my stomach has been feeling slightly off, but who knows. Some days will go like today.

Sometimes even a failure is a success in some ways. I did make it through my first set of squats at 270 pounds. I didn't make all the sets. The big win here though is that I finally made it past my old Crossfit Trinium one rep max for reps!

Yesterday I did two WODs that made my knee and hamstring pretty angry. Much to my surprise my lifts felt good this morning even with the anger in my legs.

Last week, I skipped my twenty rep front squats, thinking my heavy single would be too much in the same week. I failed the twenty reps at 170 pounds this week not because of weight, but I pressed it too tightly against my neck.

Today didn't go so well in the garage. It was very humid and I failed my squat from the humidity. I was sweating so much it almost seemed as if the bar was slipping on my shoulders.

We were smelling rubber burning while driving down 283 today. We figured out where it was coming from when a truck in front of us had their tier exploded. Lucky there was no accident the way it bounced around.
