Notes:
  • Body: Right lateral hamstring tendon some pain during middle squat sets and burpees.
  • Workout: Squats could have been better. Taking a few days off for vacation certainly didn't help my strength. 235# form was not very good, and I was going to do 240# but after picking up the weight I decided not to attempt. The metcon was better, intensity was good. Unable to get 20 chin ups unbroken.
  • Swim: Felt good and strong. The 60s rest in the intervals was too much rest so I did 5 and then switched to 30s rest. Averages were better than last time I did 50yd intervals. Seem to be a tad faster when swimming on my left side.
  • Misc: Vacation was good. I have the 24-hr Beatdown event this Saturday in NYC, which I'm looking forward to. Hopefully my body behaves for the most part.
