Slept a lot last night, even though it was hot as hell in my house. Ate sushi, chips, and B&J's ice cream. Hmmmmmm.
Coffee, ground turkey, some sugar snap peas beforehand. Training @ 11am.
Warmed up with romanian deadlifts, empty bar, 135, 175, 190 (each x 3)
220x3x7
All successful, felt good and slower than last week but definitely not grinders. Had to be reminded a lot to keep the bar close to my legs.
Assistance:
Bulgarian split squats, 3x10 each leg (10#, 15#, 25#)
Single leg curls with foam roller, 3x12 each leg
Overhead press holds, 55#, 3x35sec
Cashout - planks, 35 sec front and back, 25 sec each side.
After, ate a burger with cheese, bacon, and no bun plus a few french fries.
Then watched some amazingly strong people throw some huge weight around. Inspiring.

6x5 @ 87% of 1RM - 210
*Still felt fast-ish, all were touch and go!

*left leg is weaker
OH hold, 45# bar, 3x35sec (easy)

Loved today. So happy with those deadlifts.
