Mat pulls (5)
550 x 8 (2 rest pauses)
Honestly was hoping for more than 6 non-rested reps just for the sake of surpassing my old numbers but this isn't bad either (and I was heavier then). Same deal as last week, the weight felt light and then my back just tired out and felt pumped. Took my shirt off due to the heat and belt was loose. Also worth noting that I've been remarkably consistent in my performance since reinventing how I think about leg drive, haven't had a missed rep in awhile.
Belt squats
5 plates, 8, 9 x 10 reps
Banded leg extensions
Put these in as a break from heavy lunges. Left hip is a little achy lately.

Very busy work day, including an in-person meeting with a contractor from a water company - luckily it was 5 min away from home. I literally finished up this workout and then was meeting the guy 15 minutes later, my eyes may have been a bit bloodshot.
