I made the decision to make it more of an even-paced 20 minutes than usual due to having a planned MTB ride in a couple of hours and not wanting to put the pressure on myself for a 'big' finish. As it was, the pace increased pretty steadily throughout (by about 2 seconds every 4 minutes) so that I finished on a 1:48 split for the last 4 mins without consciously trying to finish fast.

Not much to say really. It just didn’t go up! There was no drama - I have some of those lovely spotter straps from Strength Shop which came to good use.

It’s the first squat I’ve failed in ages - I really wanted the 6th rep to give me confidence that 200kg would be there, but that might have to wait a while longer...

I really wanted to row today, but I’m going out on my bike with somebody this afternoon, so the rowing will have to wait until tomorrow.

Thursday

Deadlift
160kg x 3, 3, 3

Warm up
10 mins 2504 1:59.8 26

3:28.7 1:44.3 28

I decided before the session not to sprint the last part of the last rep, and felt considerably better than normal for it after a session like this. I even considered an extra rep. Something to think about for next time.

A horrible sprint at the end, or an extra rep? What a lovely decision to have to make! Grin
