    1) 165, 185, 195 – I have a tiny bit more. Getting way better at these.
    2) 165, 175, 185(7) Many swear words after missing that last one.

    I feel great guys! Maybe it’s the bacon-cheese-stuffed-crust pizza and 47 pepsi’s I had last night. This is exactly what I need. essentially strength-metcons. If the rest was 60 or 90s this would be a WOD. I’m looking forward to everyday in this cycle.
