TEST DAY - 5.1.10

i must become even more diligent and practice these movements weekly, if not daily. otherwise i'll always be wanting more and right now there's more to be gained from improvements in technique than strength.

BENCH(LESS) - 4.28.10

when you're short on equipment you have to get creative. i'm having a hard time finding a simple flat bench with no gadgets or unwanted adjustments. in the meantime i'll continue to find other ways to maintain strength in that area.

OH TEST METHOD 1 / CHASER - 4.22.10

after dealing with a shoulder injury for the last 8 months, today's result is a welcome sign of healing and progress. the chaser was effective and a much needed compliment to the stength test.

BENCHMARK ALPHA - 4.20.10

with only borderline efficiency in the muscle up exhaustion was not as much of a consideration as was muscle failure. technical efficiency and increased power to weight ratio will help with this personal issue and should allow for a higher score next time

EARNED REST - 4.17.10

my eyes and perceived abilities were larger than my stomach and reality on this one. a true failure in programming. the first trial with this format and due to a severe load miscalculation i wasn't able to experience the scenario as intended.
