3/9 OHP and throws
45x2x10, 95x8, 115x5, 145x3, 165x2x1, 115x3x12 Bench 115x10, 135x10,10,8 cramp Throws 42 Heavyweight 1 turns x2 best of 36' 2 turns x5 best of 45' 28 lightweight 2 turns x5 best of 63' 16 open Stone Glides x8 best of 42' MSA x3 best of 40' This stone gives me bad road rash on my jaw bone. I felt like I was on the verge of something good with the modifications I've made to my glide, but my face hurt so I called it good. Light hammer x5 best of 98' poop. I'm starting to feel the effects of taking my throwing volume from none to every day. I probably should have eased back into it more, but having lived in Wisconsin my whole life, I know this nice weather isn't going to stick and we'll most likely get more snow, so I want to take advantage of it while I can. |

Completely respect the decision to over-do it. Winter is far from done in the North, I can feel it in my bone.
You'll be jackin around in negative garage temps in no time.

Wait...which bone?
3/11 deeeaaaadddss 2.5" inch deficit 5,5,5+ 295, 325, 370x10 Regular type 370x1 (double overhand),420x1, 440x3 Just trying to get these to feel normal again. This was the beat it has felt in a loooong time. 440 was nice and easy. Deficits still feel more natural though. |

3/15 squat
Jeff's bone (much like my hips) does not lie. We got 5 inches of snow today. Friggin' mother nature. If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times, we wouldn't have these problems if father nature was involved, but I digress... 3,3,3+ 325, 375, 415x8 3x3 paused squat 415, 375, 325 Time to blow some snow... |

I think we've moved fully into rain and regular 40 degree temperature swings in the same day. Spring is sproinging upon us in the South. All that equals throwing in the mud, but that's what hammer boots are for. Tom |

My Bone never lies. Yesterday in NH it was 7 degrees as a high and 20 MPH winds. In 2 days it'll be 50 with a chance of snow on Friday.
Where is Father Nature when we need him!?

3/16 presses and sandbags
OHP 45x10, 95x8, 115x8, 135x5, 145x5,5,4 Bench 135x5, 175x5,5 Sandbag loads 150x3, 225x3, 275x2. It took about 8 tries to get it figured out with the 275, but once I did, I was able to get it twice in a row. Tried one more time, but I was pooped. |

That's like loading one Luke tightly packed in a sack on a platform. More than impressive!

I've always said, sandbags fight back when you lift them. Luke probably would too.

I'm training to be able to dispose of Luke's body if necessary. The sandbag is considerably less squishy though.

3/19 deadlift
2.5" deficit 3,3,3+ 325, 350, 395x8 Regular 395x3, 415x3, 415x3, 415x5 I'm starting really like having deficit deads as my main lift and using regular deads as a secondary movement. I need to figure out a way to program it so I have some sort of progression and don't just go all berserker with it though. |

3/21 throws
Light hammer 3 winds x8 best of 100' worst of 99' consistent but not consistently good. Heavyweight (42) 1 trun x2 best of 35'. Hate 'em. 2 turns x5 best of 45' worst of 43'. I had 3 throws in a row between 45'2" and 45'7". My best 3 throw series ever. Woot Wob pulls @15' branch 6/8. They were all plenty high and I didn't leave any out front what was nice. It was just hard to find the right spot under the branch to avoid mud and/or uneven ground. |

3/22 Squat and sandbags
5,3,1+ 345, 395, 440x5 440x1 paused Front squat 315x2 paused Sandbag stuff Threw around the 150 a bit for warmup. Loaded the 225 and 255 a few times. Attempted the 305 a dozen or so times and failed miserably every time. The pick was easy, I just couldn't get the stupid big dumb bag over my knees. I'm sure it's a technique issue, but I'm going to blame it on being short. After conceding defeat on that, I tried to shoulder the 255 a few times. More failure ensued. I got really close a couple times, just didn't have the energy to fight with it. |

Sounds like Luke sabotaged it to mess with your head.
Cant trust Luke as far as you can throw him.

I can't throw him very far, but I can pick him up and load him on a 50" platform. So, I've got that going for me, which is nice. 3/24 OHP 45x12, 95x5, 115x5, 135x3, 145x3x5, 135x6x3 Bench 135x10, 155x10,8 |

He would definitely try to wrestle me if I did. Otherwise it would be too close to hugging. I'd have to sneak up on him. Maybe when he's sleeping. He would be so confused when he woke up atop the platform. 3/25 deads 2.5" deficit 5,3,1+ 325, 375, 415x6 Regular 415x3, 435x3 After my top set of deficits, I suffered a severe, potentially life-threatening, toe cramp. It was very brave of me to even attempt any backoff work. I'm not lazy. I'm a gosh darn hero. |

3/31 throws
Light hammer 3 winds x10 best of 106' most throws between 101-103. Better average than last time. Heavyweight Fulls x8 best of 44' most throws around 42. These didn't feel as good today. I was impatient out of the back and at the finish. Too much dragging the weight. |

4/5 sandbags and throws
Loaded the 225 and 260 a few times. Shouldered the 260 which was my goal for the year, so now I don't have to train anymore. Also flipped Luke's 700ish lb tire a few times. Fun was had. Throws Heavy hammer 3 winds x4 best of 78' poop Light hammer 3 winds x6 best of 104' meh poop 56 for distance Fulls x4 best of 32'5" practice pr woo 42 for distance Fulls x4 best of 46'2" practice pr woo 28 for distance Fulls x4 best of 64' ripped hand poop 56 wob @13'6" branch x6. Smashed it pretty good on my last pull after Luke reminded me to sit and be patient. |

4/6 squats and stones
45x10, 135x8, 225x5, 315x5, add 17" box, 365x5, 415x5, 415x5, 415x5, 365x5, 315x5 I've been having a pain in my hip/upper quad. It's a familiar pain that shut my squatting down for a good while a year or so ago. I can still squat to depth, but it's a little uncomfortable right now. I decided to get ahead of it rather than just grinding until I can't squat anymore. The plan as of now is to run at least one cycle of box squat then reevaluate after that. Stones 22lbs Braemar Fronts x4 best of 32' Fulls x5 best of 34' high 16lbs open Stone Stands x1 best of 41' Glides x8 best of 44' We messed aroubd with the 4k shot and 14lbs and 10lbs stones too for a while. Best with the 14 was 48', best with the 10 was 53', and best withe 4k was not hurting my elbow. |

2.5" deficit 5,5,5+ 295,335,380x10 1.5" deficit 405x3, 455x3 Pendlay rows 3x3@225. Just kind of feeling these out. I never used to like them because they hurt my biceps just like any row with a double overhand, but they felt okay today. |

I like the Pendlay because it doesn't keep your low back in a compromised position with the reset on the ground every rep.
Continue these. I demand it.
