Two steps forward, one step back. . . .

     Last night I got home and did some pull up work, alternating pull up sets with ring dips sets.  I performed a single and a double with no significant difficulty, but had to cheat to get a triple (kicking my chin over the bar).  I did a couple more doubles and then was interrupted by a chatty neighbor; memo to self:  close the garage door if you don't want distractions.

     This morning I was supposed to do a strength work out followed by some conditioning but was slow-moving when the alarm sounded.  

Bench Press:  3 @ 175#; 3 @ 185#; 5 @ 190# (last set was max reps); then, 5 x 10 @ 105#.
Rows:  3 @ 135#; 3 @ 140#; 5 @ 145# (last set was max reps); then, 5 x 10 @ 85#.
Front Squat:  3 @ 165#; 3 @170#; 3 @ 175#. 

     The last set of FS was max reps; I basically whimped out.  I did 3 sets of 5 at the same weight last week, so am capable of more.
