7:16 – HSW was somewhat of a struggle today but I think it was mainly cause the gym was crowded and I had to be conscious of where everyone was. C2B were good but I can tell I need to build up more strict base again
+
Crossover Symmetry – your choice (spend 10 mins here
**if needed- switch this to power and adjust loading
165 – 2:16 – these were solid. Heavier and faster than last week! Practiced making my setup faster

7+2, 5+1, 4+2 – these were tough. I may have come out a little bit hotter than I wanted in the first one but I was feeling good and happy that I was able to get back to the bar quickly. Second one I was just kind of tired. Third one I struggled to get started on my DU sets. Once I got the first one I was good every time but that first one I tripped getting started for some reason each time.
Day score 8: Feel like I bounced back today. Body feels good.

TTT TD #75
TBA
2+43. We fell behind on the BMU mainly. This one hurt but I was happy that I was able to keep up the intensity. We went head to head with Tommy and his partner and only finished 6 cals behind so that was cool.
Day score 4: Feeling beat up from this week and Thanksgiving sweets but surprisingly had zero knee issues today. I warmed up my glute med pretty well and it made a difference I think.
