Dumbbell Curl to Press
20lb x 3 x 12
Did these slow, tried to keep my ribs pinned down so not to arch my back.
I've decided to forgo a deload, and mix up the weight rep schemes a bit week to week. Looking at my log, the most success I had was when I switched the reps up more.

On 6/2 and 6/4 I did my tabata cardio. 4 sets of 4 minute tabata intervals (20s on, 10s off), 3 minutes rest in between pedaling at minimum of 50w.
6/5/15
Workout:
Snatch Pull
135lb x 6
175lb x 4
205lb x 4
225lb x 2
pulls all came high, but the last two sets aggravated my right foot, which has been healing from a stress fracture.
Squat
135lb x 10
225lb x 10
275lb x 10
This reminds me why I have to alternate high rep weeks into my program. even 225lb for 10 was fine until 6, then was a little rough.
Romanian Deadlift
275lb x 6
295lb x 6
315lb x 4
One-Legged Leg Press
230lb x 2
180lb x 5
180lb x 6
Glad I did this, because it made me realize there's something up with my right hip. This was way harder on my right side, and not an issue at all for my left. I could feel it in my hip and groin.MISC STRENGTH CREW

I liked trying to move 225lb faster, then just moving up the weight. 275lb is probably the heaviest i'll do for doubles, until i can get it up faster
Squat
275lb x 2 x 6
315lb x 5
315lb x 4
315lb x 2
Man, those last few sets just felt so heavy. Form was way off. Probably because I rushed, didn't have time for a proper warmup. I'll drop the weight next week and go for reps.
Ran out of time, as I was going to see The Daily Show right after. I'll put in what I missed on my next workout.MISC STRENGTH CREW

Rugby game
Ugh, this was brutal as I was a little tired from a wedding i had the day before. I wasn't hungover, just exhausted. Ended up starting at tight-head, then hooker, then lock. We lost, but overall not a bad day playing wise. I didn't miss any tackles.

Man, the 2 sets of 245lb were rough. But I've been trying to make my build up sets heavier. I also supersetted the last 3 over 200lb sets of bench with clapping pushups

Rugby Sevens
Played sevens for close to an hour, which is exhausting. We played live, which was fun because I'm one of the biggest guys on the team playing 7s. So I just used my body to suck in defenders, then offload the ball.

Good to see the log still going bob, they making you play tighthead these days. your moving the wrong way!!!
people ask me how to train, and i answer "i look at what you do and then i do the exact oposite"
if your family was captured and you were told you needed to put 100 pounds onto your max squat within two months or your family would be executed, would you squat once per week? Something tells me that you'd start squatting every day

Thanks! Right now we're in our sevens season. I've been practicing but haven't been able to make it to any tournaments. The club came in 3rd the first tournament in the series, but have not been able to place since. I might be playing in the next one soon. Haven't had a chance to get out as every weekend this summer I've had a wedding or a bachelor party. Everyone on this team has been getting married or engaged!
