Comments: After stretching we did a mini-tabata warm-up (KBs and squats) that I liked. I used 12" box* and 20# KB. Tried to hold a 2 min. 500 and fell apart at about 450 meters, sliding to around 2.14 average. It was hot as hell in there. Did the 20s and then decided maybe outside (with some wind) would feel better. Nope. It was like a sauna. I could barely move my feet/legs running? I'm going to blame it on the sudden body-shocking heat wave. Planned on going back to the row for round 3, but even the awful run felt "easier" than that first row. I think my legs hurt the most today and I'm going to blame the squats. My 1RM is 110# so those numbers seem pretty decent for 5RM. Progression went 65/75/80/85/95#.

*I'm sick of mentioning it so for the last time, I'm scaling all jumping indefinitely for fear of re-injuring my foot which continues to act up every once in a while. Sorry for all posts wimpy in the jumping department.
