Please explain a bit further for me and maybe provide an example.

Never mind. I didn't understand that we go through the whole deck. That's 52 freaking cards!!!!!

You can do it...I think it'll go by faster than you think.

Did it a little differently...I don't think we have a deck of cards in the whole house and didn't realize that until this morning.

So, I did:

Strict Press: 3 x 85, 95, 105, 115, 125, 135 and 145.

All of them were strict.

Then I did a DL/Ring Dip routine:

5 rounds -
10 x 135lb DL
10 x Ring Dip

AM crew did the deck of cards things. We divided into teams and as a team we completed them together. We split the deck in half and did 2 rounds.

Team 1:
round 1: 9:30
round 2: 8:45

Team 2:
round 1: 12:00
round 2: dnf/----
deadlifts killed team 2.

Did front squat routine today at lunch:

135x3
165x3
185x3
195x1
205x1
165x5

My legs seem to be liking the low rep thing. I have to work against rounding the back on the heavier weights. It's like the back just caves to hold it together.

I just gotta say that that fat kid is nasty to look at.
