Cindy, the second date.

Warming up with:
10 - 8 - 6 - 4 - 2
Airsquat + "the worm".

Then:
Work up heavy 3RM deadlift

Then:
"Cindy":
AMRAP 20 min:
5 pull-ups
10 push-ups
15 squats

Results:
DL: 40 - 70 - 100 - 130 - 150 kg

Cindy:
16 rounds, 2 squats away from 17. (PR). My old was 15 rounds (thought it was 14). So the improvement was nearly 2 rounds, which is really good I think. Next time I guess my goal is 18 rounds.

Everything felt good today, I regret not pushing it to 17 rounds but a PR is a PR and I'm happy about it.

Cindy baby, it's rough!

So Cindy and I got together today:
AMRAP, 20 minutes:
5 pull-ups, 10 pushups, 15 squats.

Result:
15 rounds (I was in on the pushups when the bell rang).
I had some issues today with my breath, I'm not sure why. I felt ill
from roughly round 5 and forward. I think it might be because it felt as if
my belly was full of water (even though I hadn't eaten for over 3 hours) and
somehow I couldn't press myself as hard as I do sometimes / as hard as I want to.
Anyways, 15 rounds isn't too bad.

The better news:
My deadlift is back! I did 4x 2RM today, and although I didn't perform as
high as my expectations (do I ever, really?), I didn't feel any backpains
at all!

Results:
(warmup)
20 kg
70 kg
110 kg
140 kg
work:
160 kg (felt like my form broke on the second rep here, so I lowered)
150 kg
150 kg
150 kg.
So I'm all happy now!
