Notes
I was planning on doing sledgehammers and some other shit, but I've developed blistering around/under  the callouses on my hands.  How the fuck that is possible after doing barbell shit/chins/farmers walks week in week out for years... I have no idea.  The twisting action of the dual 70 lb kb cleans on Tuesday are the source.  But, come on.  Annoying as fuck.  Anyways, I had to do stuff that I where I could hold the bar/bell in my finger tips.

Today I felt a marked difference in my conditioning level.  I was definitely breathing hard during the circuits, but I had no problem going into each round with minimal rest.  Todays conditioning was a 6 our of 10 on the effort scale.  Most of the work I have been doing is 7-8.  I've been completely staying away from any threshold stuff.  I'll leave that for the weak people that like to do crossfit.
