C3. Negative GHD raises: 4 x 7 @50A0, rest 2 min (complete)
Notes: Pull is feeing better today, though height and speed under the bar left something to be desired. My jerk on the other hand felt awesome today. I was focusing on my aggressive with the arm drive but driving down. Felt solid.
Had an epiphany on my front squats. I need to allow my hips to be closer to my heels, but I need to keep my body weight in my heels. This thought allowed me to drive effectively with my legs. Wrists were bothering my with the higher repetitions so I switched to straps.
Axle rows were okay. I dropped the weight a little so I could focus on a more effective scapular retraction which I think is very weak. Bench press felt good though I felt my shoulders coming forward a bit on a few reps. I need to extend the arms without that happening. Still working on keeping the hips tucked on the GH negatives.
Though I was feeling tired going into training, it was overall a descent training session.
