6lb sledgehammer finger walks, 1/1, x 2

9:15am - Complete

Notes - I would call this pretty good, but very disappointing to not be able to break the bar on the last DL rep.  Just frustrating.  I got deeper on the work set for squats, I was really happy with that.  OHP was not hard for the top set of 5, also a good sign.  Getting back to 5s on that lift this week has been good.  And then on the DL, I thought I was going to get it, but the 4th rep was very tough, and I could not get the 5th.  I stopped and tried to get my breath before getting it, and that was stupid. On these sets of 5 you just have to go.  And then I tried to get a single and could not.  I have to look at the video again, there has to be something there that I could improve technique wise.  Certainly the DL seems stalled.   I did a few chins at the end as well.
