Think I’m good with this being the last workout before the Open on Saturday! Will be around for mobility stuff Friday but definitely resting tomorrow.

Worked up to 135# and that felt a LOT better than last time. I think when we did pause front squats last I made it to 135 but completely lost my posture and it got pretty ugly so I didn’t expect to hit it tonight. The medball series was fun, too, could see a couple extra rounds of that and I would be pretty sore tomorrow!
3 x 3 at 40# and I DIDN’T SHIFT MY HIPS!!! Sucess!

Med ball throws were really fun! Med balls are MUCH easier to catch than baseballs, softballs, wiffle balls, tennis balls, lacrosse balls, basketballs, or bowling balls.
A little irony for you there….I can spell, I promise. SUCCESS.
