Workout A

New stuff.  Credit to Shaf.  New notation too.

Dynamic stretching
Power Clean 95 x 3, 115 x 3, 135 x 5 x 3, 155 x 3 x 3
Deadlift 245 x 1, 255 x 1, 270 x 5, 285 x 5, 305 x 5
Chin-up / Dip ladder 1-5
Jog 11:20min ahr 161, max 170, min 134, recover 11 (155-144)

-Forgot abs.  This shit was long anyways - fuck the stretching next time.
-Cleans were easy, deadlift was a good effort.
-Ladder was easy - repeat with pull-ups, then wide grip, then adding weight.
-Jog was easy as its supposed to be.  I think the pace could be even slower; however, its hard to go slow on my toes.

Workout

Ride

6 mile leisurely bike ride, mostly street with some dirt. took about an hour including a few stops for scenic views.

Run

Week off due to lack of discipline and school work.  Succinctly, poor time management.  Dropping 5x5 for now, but will revisit once or twice a year from now on.  This week and maybe next will be free form conditioning and bodyweight shit.  Then, I have a new template in mind.

2.05 mile run asphat/dirt and nothing flat - 21.25 min AHR 169, Max 187 (nucka!), Min 95, Recover - 13 (186-173)
