Went and did 10 minutes on the eliptical, would have done more but it's all I had in me haha.

Happy with the workout, feeling strong, did not expect to get 8 reps with 100lb DB'S, I was expecting maybe 6 at best, the last two reps of each set were definitely grinders but I got them up with good form, they just fought me every step of the way hahaha. Same with flat presses, I can usually rep out 100lb DB'S for those if I'm fresh so 105lb for 8 pre fatigued I was happy with. Also pretty happy with my deads, definitely getting more stamina with those, hopefully go for a 455lb lb pull in the next month, I pulled 425 a few weeks ago but it was a fuckin grinder so hopefully I'll be little stronger on those now.

Surprised with bent over rows as well, I thought maybe 6 reps with 205 but I can 10 fairly easy so I might do a couple sets at 225 next week and try and just go for 4-6 reps and do se drop sets with it, we'll see.
 
Hit legs, won't post the workout as it was pretty much what I did for legs on friday, I don't get terribly creative with legs, I switch it up every couple weeks and throw some lunges and farmers walks and stuff in but that's bout it. Did hit 315 for 6 reps on squats so that's some improvement for sure. Did 10 minutes of HIIT on the eliptical and let me tell you...that fucked my world all up, had to sit down for about 5 minutes after and just catch my breath. Did 2 minutes at moderate pace then 30 seconds at a full sprint, then 1 minute moderate and 30 seconds full sprint, then another 2 minutes moderate followed by 30 seconds full sprint then 1m moderate and 30 seconds full sprint and ended with one last "rep" 2 minutes moderate 30 second full sprint to end. Boy I'm in shit cardiovascular shape so I will probably stick to 10 minutes for a couple weeks them bump it up to 15 minutes and keep going from there. Felt good though, definitely felt like I got a workout haha
