Started as a technique Day for high bar squats I did 10 sets of 5 with the empty bar every minute in the minute. I want...

Greasing the groove is basically doing an exercise in submax sets sprinkled through out the day. My rep max doing pull-ups right now is probably 5 or 6, with heinous technique on the last rep. So throughout the day I do sets of 2, which are always technically perfect and generally I recover from the...

Run/walk around the small block
8+2+8+2+12=32 min 2.7 miles
GTG 18 pull-ups

Grease the groove pull-ups are hurting my elbows, so I'm going to ease up in them by alternating a day of pull-ups and a day of push-ups, considering that number is low too.

Basebuilding Week 1 Day 4 Press 85x6x4 Deadlift 225x5x3 GTG pullups 19 I'm leaving squats out of the basebuilding, as my primary goal is building my aerobic base. That and squats bother my elbows, which I'm hoping my pullup volume will help fix. Press was easy, I didn't even do a warm up. I belted u...

For this version of BB I'm going to do two 30min runs and one progressively longer and optional shorter recovery run.

By logging how many reps I get per set, then I can try to beat them in the next workout, so I would still be p...
