I wasn't sure I'd be able to train today due to some changes to my schedule, but I finally managed to get it in at the end of the day. My sleep has been jacked up, but I feel pretty much recovered from worlds other than that so I wanted to try working up to a 3RM on something I hadn't done in a while. It turned out that things started to feel sketchy around an RPE of about 7/10 so I settled for a heavy triple instead of an actual 3RM. Then I played around with the versa pulley at the end since I have never had access to one before.
RDL
10x45
8x135
6x245
4x335
3x385
3x425
3x475
3x515
The last set didn't feel that difficult, but it did feel BAD, by which I mean I could tell my body wasn't working well enough for it to be worth it for me to keep working up today.
Versa Pulley Hatfield Squats/SS Yoke Bar Calf Raises
15x/25x245
2x{15x/25x265}
After this I had every intention of doing an airbike tabata, but my quads were screaming at me as soon ass I sat down so I opted for some tempo work instead. No need to wreck myself the first week back when I haven't even programmed out an actual block of training yet.
