Back from vacation!
Fighting off an eye infection, but I wanted to go to the gym. If I felt my eye oozing, I would leave, since I don’t want to give it to other people.
Also, it was Halloween themed day at the strongman gym, so I put on my Unicorn mask Bonus: Halloween candy as intraworkout!
warmup: stretched out low back
Unicorn Deadlifts (very short rests, sock feet, mask on)
135 x 2
185 x 2
225 x 2
275 x 2
*rests shortened to alternating doubles with partner, prob 30 seconds or less*
335 x 2
335 x 2
335 x 2
335 x 2
335 x 2
335 x 2
*longer rest then another 335 x 1*
notes: cardio! Instead of 30 second rest periods, I just jumped back and forth with another guy. I also did these with the mask on. I pretended it was a high altitude mask because it was hard to breathe! Plus it made me sweat like crazy. After 6 low rest doubles, I did another single so I could get a photo op with my unicorn mask on 
My foot is still too swollen to be comfy in a shoe, so I did these in wool socks.
Axle 5 inch Block Pulls (long rest, sock feet, straps, extra thick axle)
360 x 5
360 x 5
Snatch Grip Deadlifts (short rests, sock feet)
205 x 6
205 x 6
225 x 6
notes: everyone was deadlifting today! So I worked in with another person, and just used their weight. Maybe too light but it helped me focus on form.
Chest Supported T-Bar Rows (short rests, alternating grip)
110 x 10 Elbows high
110 x 10 Elbows mid height
110 x 10 Elbows low
notes: I wanted to do pulldowns, but it was taken, so I did these instead.
Unicorn Frame Shrugs (medium rest, mask on)
280 x 10
280 x 10
280 x 10
Unicorn Viking Press (very short rests, mask on)
100 x 15
100 x 17
100 x 14
notes: My foot didn’t feel solid enough to do a moving event like the Farmers Walk. Plus I wasn’t wearing shoes. So I chose to do some burnout OHPs with the Viking Press. Plus mask 
At this point, I was done what I came to do, but my workout buddy wasn’t done his workout, so I occupied myself with random crap.
DB Hammer Curls (short rests)
30s x 15
30s x 15
30s x 15
Hyperextensions (short rests)
16, 16, 16
Face Pulls (minimal rest)
15 x 100 reps, as many sets as it took (about 4)
Happy that my eye held up! A fun first session back after travelling.
