Oct 3rd - Testing

Sleep - 5.5 hrs, all after midnight Energy low Pre WO and during - 10g BCAA mixed w/ 1L water Workout (830AM) AM A. Back squat; build to a 1rm - 325 (335f - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2q5HGxIOAq4&feature=youtu.be) No leg drive out of the hole today, bar felt stable and solid on my back. Didn't get the 325 on video because I expected to go higher, lesson learned to tape all working sets. B. Drop of 85% and perform 1 amrap set @30x1 tempo - 3 reps @ 275lbs - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xI4p0n7w7ug&feature=youtu.be Very frustrated by this because the failure was not strength, it was balance. Dropped my head on the eccentric of the 4th rep and then coming out of the bottom came WAY forward on my toes, and didnt have the energy to fight it. Feel like I could have gotten at least 7-8 reps. C1. Weighted chin up; build to a max in 4 attempts - 88,114,123,128 http://youtu.be/gG6MZpIQ8zo C2. Strict press; build to a max in 4 attempts - 125,145,155,160(f) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SMfZvgkiE4E&feature=youtu.be http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pv_SIS-Fnac&feature=youtu.be D. Close grip bench press; build to a max - 245lbs - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-mOSpz8ecE&feature=youtu.be No spotter, stopped here, would have been close to true max. Breakfast (1030AM) - 2 sausages, 2 eggs, 4oz greek yogurt (5gCHO) 1L Water throughout day Snack - 1 egg, 1 sausage PM Workout - (530PM) 50 strict HSPU for time - 7:20. rep scheme - 6 sets of 5, 3 sets of 3, singles. was at 25 reps at 2:30, then slowed down. some slow reps but no misses, tried to stay away from failure, maybe a little too much. 3 min rest 15min AMRAP 15 KBS 2pd 15 burpees 7 full rounds + 8 swings Painful right after the HSPU, no pop on swings and no turnover speed on burpees due to shoulder fatigue. all KBS unbroken, burpees SLOW.
