Block 11. Cycle 4. Session C.

 BW - 232

Waist - 43.75"

BB Rows - 145X10, 10, 10 @~8

Hanging Leg Raises - BWX6, 6, 6 @7/8

Dips - BWX10, 10, 10 @8/10

Everything but leg raises were a little rougher this week than last week.

I dropped back the weight on rows to make sure I'm dropping my shoulders completely between reps.  I think a few years of only doing Pendlays neglected that part of rowing technique, and I was tending to keep my shoulders up throughout the movement.  The added ROM and slightly slower pace needed to reset the weight a little bit.
