I really do enjoy the process of crafting a new program based on what I want to accomplish for that block. Lots of parts to get in the right place.

Operator, week 1
DL 365 3x5
Squats 315 4x5
OH Press 175 5x5

First time doing back squats or deadlifts in almost 2 months. I picked really conservative 1RMs (and partly because it's Operator so there's more frequency than with I/A, which is what I had done back squats and deadlifts with before), and strength-wise everything felt fine. But while deadlifting I felt a good pinch of some kind in my abs, and then on the last set of squats my legs got crazy DOMS. So tomorrow should be pretty fun.

Sunday 12/30
600m Resets x4

Just felt rough all over. Thighs are still sore from yesterday but knees are too, which is more worrisome. And I still suck at HICs 1-10 (the ones that involve movement). I hadn't done this one in a long time and I did do better than I had then but still not nearly good enough.

On the positive side, it takes a whole lot more work to get me gassed out (where I'm just gasping for air) than when I finished BB in September.

Monday 12/31
Operator, week 1
DL 365 3x5
Squat 315 4x5
OH Press 175 5x5

Inside and back of my right leg is still really sore, but I made it through. I was pretty careful with form and kept my stance close in on squats.

End of a rough week. Feel just a step off on both strength and conditioning stuff. Day off tomorrow and hopefully I'll recover for Saturday.
