Merrrrr today wasn't the greatest.
I knew I couldn't expect much on the back squat, considering I haven't squatted anything heavy since October. 275 felt better than I thought it would, 285 got pretty slow on the way up. Really, I had no business even trying 295, should have just called it at 285 for today. The max reps at 85% were stupid. Was extremely faithful on tempo, and when I stood up the 3rd I knew I needed to rest at the top it I was going to get a 4th rep, but that's not allowed, so I just racked it. Hard to believe that I squatted 245 for 10 last year. Sigh. Knee feels like shit, but I kind of just want to run it into the ground over the next month... why not?
I was looking forward to seeing the improvement on the CTB test, and I did... last year it took me over 9:00 to get 10 sets. I'm in a weird place now where I'm not yet proficient at butterfly but I've kind of lost the regular kipping rhythm, so these weren't great but I had no problems hitting 5 unbroken reps for the first 10 sets even if I had to reset the kip. Ripped once on the second set, then again on the 6th set, then accumulated 3 more bloody rips between sets 10-15. Also had 3 failed sets within the last few minutes where I just did 2-3 reps and dropped off, my hands were just fucking done. I don't think I've ever ripped this badly, I definitely have never had to clean blood off a bar before today. I don't think I'll be washing my hair today.
