Wendler 10
Simple 6
Box 3x5

Squat
300 x 5,5,5,5,5
First time using a straight bar to squat since early February. Felt pretty good except for the hangover in my legs from all the Prowler pushes this morning.

Bench
225 x 5,5,5,5,5
Using the Duffalo bar for the last several months for bench definitely made the straight bar bench feel much easier.

No accessories tonight.

Prowler x 40 trips = 300 for the month and DONE!

I did this as a challenge to get the 40 done in 60 minutes which is an average of about 1 minute of rest per sprint. When I did 50 a couple of months ago I did 1:30 rest periods so I was pretty happy with the improvement in my conditioning. I also lowered my resting heart rate from 72 to 52 this month during the challenge which was an added bonus.

Everything felt heavy tonight. Realized after the fact that the supports on the bench were about 3 inches lower than where I usually have them. Which when you don't take a hand off makes a bit of a difference :(.

Ode to Super Squats (I have a kid here training for a month that I will be working with using the Super Squats program (Strossen). I will be training with him as well as making sure to get in my regular work so my training will probably appear a bit odd over the next month. We are also going to get in 300 Prowler pushes this month!

Worked to 225x20 (For those that don't know the program, you work to a set of 20 squats every session 2-3 times per week adding 5010 pounds of bar weight each session).

That was all I had time for to allow Prowler time.
