Phase 5 - Workout A4
One-armed dumbbell snatch

4x4x35
No problems with my left arm. Maybe it decided to catch up.

Dumbbell single-leg Romanian deadlift
4x4x35e

Barbell bent-over row
2x4x95
2x4x100
Figured I'd try 100 since I was so close to it anyway. What's 5 pounds right? My 1st set of 100s I got about 80% full ROM. I almost went back down in weight but thought I'd give it another shot. Got about 95% full ROM. Pretty damn close. these make my back feel so strong.

Dumbbell single-arm overhead squat
4x4x17.5/35
Didn't progress much on these at all during this phase.

Dumbbell incline bench press
4x4x30e

Plank
120s -0 touches
120s - 2 touches
120s - 0 touches
Definitely getting stronger on these. Does anyone else's delts set fire during these? My lactic acid threshold is pretty low I guess.

Woodchop
skipped. bleh.
Bodyweight Matrix
3:35

didn't repeat.

I did some pull-ups on the pull-up bar though... did 1 with a jumping start then did 2 more unassisted (arms got down past parallel, but not to straight). So that was fun.
