My legs have been cramping up for the past few days, and I didn't even think about drinking more water.  And then I realized I hadn't drank anything but coffee before I came in to train at 3:00 today! No wonder my legs were cramping up so bad!  Gonna go buy a gallon size jug of water and make sure I drink the whole thing before I work out tomorrow.

A. front squat @41x1; 6-8x5; rest 2 minutes
B. deficit deadlift @31x1; 4-6x5; rest 2 minutes

4 minute amrap:
2 deadlift (205#)
2 strict hspu

Results:

I did 50 double unders before anything else.  I got 19 in a row from the beginning, and then my last set was about the same with a few mess ups in between.  Attempted them again at the end but the leg cramping was preventing me from getting more than about 2 in a row so I stopped.

A. 120x8
125x8
130x8
135x8
140x4
these felt really really hard!  I don't remember them feeling that hard last week.

B.165x6
175x6
185x6
195x6
205x6
these were tough too, emphasized the pause at the bottom a lot more than I did last week which made them significantly harder.

C. 65, 75, 80, 85, 90

this little metcon felt really good!  glad to have ended this day on a positive note.  I was worried about the deadlift going in, and it definitely started to feel very heavy by the end but I never really had to slow down or stop moving which I was not expecting!
