Default Stage 2 Take 1

Wow Stage 2 is hard. Pumped to get back to lifting again, as nice as the break was. It took me several tries with the barbell to get the front squat/push press right, though when I did finally get it right it was greatly satisfying.

Workout 2A

A1. Front Squat/Push Press -- 1x8, 5 lb plates (55 lbs); 1x10, 2.5 lb plates (50 lbs)

B1. Step-up -- 2x10, 30 lb dumbells (60 lbs), on a box that's maybe about 5 aerobic risers + height

B2. Dumbbell one-point row -- 1x10, 20 lb DBs (40 lbs), 1x10, 25 lb DBs (50 lbs)

C1. Static lunge -- 1x20, 20 lbs DBs (40 lbs), 1x20, 15 lbs DBs (30 lbs) , did last 5 reps weightless

C2. Push-up -- 2x10, 30-degree push-ups

We had to run to make an appointment, so didn't have time do the plank and woodchop--I will probably add one more workout A towards the end of stage 2 to make it up.
