i was actually kind of excited for this workout – since i’m just getting back into the swing of things, doing the CF Football Total workout is a nice way to say “here’s where i started”. i’ll expect to see some gains next time we do total. a couple notes: 1) i did not use straps for the cleans – this felt a little awkward and i’m pretty sure i could’ve gotten 295 had i used the straps 2) i was lifting alone (i know it’s not an ideal situation), so i did not have spotters for squat and bench, i probably could’ve worked 465 in the squat harder, but i was in a good position to drop without issue when i got stuck and i stopped after my second in the bench because i didn’t want to require me to find a way to homer simpson my way out of 395lbs.
however, it did feel good to move some iron this morning!
