home potato number pumpkin: 20kg kb swing/upright row/one arm row circuit: 5/1/1 10/2/2, 15/3/3 20/4/4 25/5/5 30/6/6 35/7/7 40/8/8 45/9/9 50/10/10 home kb circuit. each round was swings, upright rows, one arm rows, starting with 5/1/1, and adding an additional 5/1/1 each round. wanted 75/15/15, but this was honestly the most atrocious forearm pump i've ever had (probably not helped by the pullups earlier), so i called it quits at 50/10/10. managed until 25/5/5 before having to rest in between rounds. took between 25 and 30 minutes-ish. and i'm probably going to regret this tomorrow
Haven't stopped by here in a while...just wanted to say it looks like you're doing fantabulous. Mighty Fish is mighty. Best of luck in improving those back squats ASAP. Is your goal to compete in Oly lifts or Crossfit? I get the impression you'd fare well.

For a fairly advanced lifter you're not squatting very heavy. Is that on purpose? (srs question and no snark intended...I'm more of a hobbyist/"practical" lifter, so I'm just curious as to how to interpret your numbers)
i'm not a fairly advanced lifter by any means, and my squat has been stalled for nearly two years for various reasons also i weight 58kg.
kettlebell stuff: swings, 20kg 100/20/30/40/50/60/70/80/20/30/40/50/60/50/25/50/25/50/25/50/25/50 1000 total, about 1h15m.

Wait, I know I've been away for a while, but what is this about a comp? Will there be footage? Will there be kilts?

Impressive tater overall...but 'dem squats are much lighter than what I'd expect from Teh Mighty Fish. What gives, bro? Oh, pre-emptive happy birthday just in case I can't get to MAP that day. *bro hug*
