Feeling incredibly stiff this morning from throwing so much at the clinic. Compounded by not throwing hammer for 2 weeks then taking 50+ throws through the course of the day. Feeling overall beat up so I opted to lower the bar weight and utilize my avg bands for some top end work. At about 365 I realized I couldn't breathe with the bar on my shoulders/throat with the bands attached, that made it incredibly difficult to make the weight, although 365 really didn't feel too bad. Moved up to 405 and felt like a train on my front delts. Came out of the hole fast but hit a wall just as fast. Pushed through the band tension and while I was locking it out I started to black out. Hurried up and racked it after lock out and stood there for a minute while everything came back. Very weird, need to figure out a different breathing pattern if I'm going to do more of these. I dropped down to 315 for a set of 6-8 and after the 2nd rep I was getting very lightheaded again. The added tension at the top of the front squat is much different than just bar weight and makes it very tough to get a breath. Maybe I'm just being a pussy, that's entirely possibly.
Speed bench was pretty fun, really the only type of flat benching I enjoy. Db incline was good, though stabilizers are still catching up. Was going to go throw stones this morning but it was fucking cold and I just didn't feel like it. Tomorrow's another day: speed deads & heavy push press then no skipping stones.
