Pressing

Early workout:

1. Work up to 1rm Press
2. 4 rounds of: 3 press @ 90%, 2 rope ascents, 50m buddy carry
-----------
1. 120
2. rx'd @ 105 for presses. Subbed farmers walk with 2x 2 pood kettlebells

Disappointed in the press numbers. I'm going to keep working at it though and hopefully make some progress. The rope ascents were pretty hard, but I enjoy these. Need to add them to some more workouts

2. Strength: Work to 1 RM Front Squat

------------------------
1. Just did regular CF warm-up, some shoulder mobility
2. 1rm = 215...pretty happy about this. Haven't front squatted in a LONG time
3. 3 rounds of 3 x front squat @ 185, farmer's walk with 2 x 55# KB, Hip Mobility Drill
4. ~30 minutes (watch malfunction). Didn't do the last 2000m row due to time constraints, so probably an add'l 8-9 minutes as rx'd.
5. rx'd. Active stretching, foam rolling, breathing exercises after I got home

As expected, another really tough workout. Still trying to get my pull-ups up to par so I don't have to partition them. Took me 2-3 sets on all rounds. The squats weren't terrible, got easier as I went on and started pacing myself better. Tomorrow's active recovery day is going to be great
