Starting To Feel Strong Again!

Ever since "Fridays Failure" I have been feeling stronger each day. Today was no exception. I rowed for warm up and my strokes felt significantly more effective then they ever have before. I was going about 65% maintaining a sub 1:40 time, with only light fatigue.


Warm up:
500m row 
1:38


Deadlift:
1x5 @ 405#
1x3 @ 455#
1x3 @ 505# (PR)


Assistance Exercise:
GHD Sit Ups
3x20 @ bodyweight


Well, there you have it. I was feeling strong. I was unsure how the deads were going to go. In my mind I was hoping that rep one with 505# would feel good enough that I would feel comfortable to attempt two. The first two reps were strong and the third was a slight struggle but a good lift none the less. My excitement paired with the 8-10 people that gathered to watch me lift was enough to pull the best out of myself. I am very satisfied with this effort.
