215 x1, 220 x 1 (barely) 210 x 1 x 4 ( 2 misses) band pushdowns, laterals, rear delts

 My attempts to create more starting speed failed. Rushed things, did not get or keep my legs stiff. figured it out though

Sunday ruck

 This was a solid one. not great but steady

45 lb ruck

9 laps

1:20

10,200 steps

4 supported squat  stretches first four laps. adding these back in they really stretch out my legs and glutes

40 kg swings 25 x 6 ( 27 min PR) 40 kg belt squat 3 x 10, pullaparts

 Did not start out feeling well but motored through. Tried to use the more quad dominant technique but if definitely didn't feel right at 40 kg so switched back

It seems that, just like in the press, things really change with heavier weights

173.8

Another fast ruck

 Not quite as  cool out as it has been but it wasn't hot. til the last 2 laps but nothing compared to a month ago

and another quick and easy pace

6 laps in 52 min with just a few rest pauses

a bit over 17 min miles with  3.45mph top

not bad at all

190 x 1 x 12, 210/225 static holds, floor pushups 35, 30

 

174 BW

215, 225 x X x 2, 205 x 1 x 5, laterals rear delts rev pushdowns

 This was a very solid day. I took 215 and it was the strongest one in a long time so I took 225 and almost made it 

What I did realize is that I need MORE starting speed with 225 than even 220. I tend to stay pretty  consistent regardless of the weight but I think I need more, without changing the technique

First time also in forever I've made 5 downsets with 205

175.0 exactly at workout time

Sunday ruck

 Ah yes the blessed time change back! love it

45 lb 

9 laps

10,000 steps

top speed 4.4 MPH!

1:20 ( LOTS of doggo breaks lol)

good tempo strong finish

32 kg swings 20 x 10 ( 31 min) 32 kg belt squats 3 x 10, pullaparts

 Switched my technique back to a more quad dominant technique and didn't worry about bell height  at all. Liked it.Much faster per rep pace and much less hip/back involvement

How I used to swing when I was doing 10 x 10/10 with the big bells

Thursday Ruck PR

 This was awesome. 6 laps in 49 minutes! This is an all time PR for the last ten years of rucking. I actually thought PR days  were over but it seems I'm finally getting back into shape

45 lbs

6 laps

49:25

3.65 MPH

16.28 min mile ave

174.0 BW
