First Week of Wendler 5/3/1

One of the interesting parts of the 5/3/1 is that you try to max out your reps on the last set of whatever movement you're doing. Today I did 3x5 with the last set at 225 and 6 reps in the last set instead of 5. Same rep scheme with the press today too, worked up to 115 with 7 reps on the last set. I won't bore you with the details in the future, maybe do a monthly update with the working weights.

Followed up the strength with oly work. Did 100 clean pulls with a PVC pipe. Probably took me 45 minutes. It was pretty taxing, focused a lot on hitting the right positions and keeping my weight in the heels for the second pull.
