155 x8
155 x8

B. Banded Leg extensions 18-20 reps rest 2 min x3 

Yup- but this is stupid. I feel it for the last 7 reps each time. Hard to keep bands on feet. End up putting it under my foot and turning foot out. I boycott for 1 year. 

+ EMOM until failure or 160 reps 
20 Wall Ball Tosses 

157

I stayed unbroken until the 6th set. Then broke up. Should have finished the 160 but I miscalculated my rest, wasn't thinking. I still did the last three but they were into the next minute. 

 + EMOM until Failure or 105 reps 
15 Burpees to a 6" target

Missed last minute by a rep or two. Shoulders/chest tired.

A. 15 min shoulder mobility and warm up 

Yup

B. 15 min split Jerk to a max + 15 min

Row was about 1:45-1:50 pace- probably a little slow

C2b- 7,5,3 for all sets. Maybe should have done more, at least for first few sets. These felt pretty strong. 

My main issue was that I was out of breath and fatigued so I took to long of breaks but overall felt ok. 

Felt good to get a whole workout in for a change Mathis new programming is good for now. I feel much better about it. I came into gym a little frustrated and left in a good mood which is how it should be.
