• General: Mentally I was probably not in it for this work out today. On the 5th rep of my last set of squat I could not convince myself to go down to try and finish it. The 4th rep was a big grind but I don't think I've ever just said "Fuck it, I can't do it" and racked it. I was a little surprised with myself when I stepped away from the rack. No PRs today. I didn't do the high rep sets because I skewed this week of my template and will be benching and box squatting after tomorrow's rest day. I'm probably going to start doing 5 sets of dips/pullups during these training days instead of 3.
• Nutrition: Good minus the pint of ice cream I had
• Body: In general I feel really run down, but nothing except my abs and back are sore.
• Sleep: 8 hours
• Reflections: I'm looking for some advice from anyone who follows my blog on other stuff I can do on my pure strength days. Maybe it's the Crossfitter inside of me but if I don't feel spent after a workout then I don't feel like I should be done. Today I felt like I had a lot left in the tank but wasn't up to doing conditioning. I just want to find some new things I can throw in as assistance work or whatever else so I can feel better. Maybe more sets? Any advice appreciated. Also, here's my finished template just to update anyone who cares. I tweaked it a bit and I think it's a lot better. Any advice appreciated on that too.
