Big weights! I broke the first set into 10-6-5 and squeezed out fives for the rest of the workout. Extremely difficult picking up the legs during the run. Legs feeling like jelly now. This should put me out of commission for the next few days.

I was so looking forward to this. Till I felt the push-ups in the fourth round. It came like thief in the night, sneaking up on you. Those shoulders were starting to throw a tantrum, screaming from the quiet abuse of yesterday’s workout. And so the hardest part wasn’t that I was struggling to perform my squats; it was trying to sustain a proper rack for the bar. They don’t call it an active position for nothing. The unknown always has a way of humbling you.

First time doing this. Focusing on proper technique with heels grounded to the floor and keeping the lumbar curve. I was having trouble with keep my grip off the bar but it turned out alright in the end when I found my sweet spot to rest the bar.
