Thursday - DL, Press, Pull/Dip, Lat Pulls, Farmer's Walk

I really feel like I am not making progress with my pull ups and maybe even going backwards. This is also because I snuck on the scale and it said 219. I decided that I need more pull up work or grip work or stuff to help get through the rigs at obstacle races. I need to add the monkey bars as finishers to my workouts and do pull ups every time I go to the gym. No resting bullshit.

Time: 1:20

DL: 12@90, 10@100, 8@110, 5@120, 3@125 - slow and steady progress here. Could have done more on the high end

Press: 12@20, 10@22.5, 8@25, 4@27.5, 3@27.5 - Again, chance to have done more on the high end but increased on the low end and couldn't get my 5th rep on 4th set so I didn't advance. 

Pull Ups: 2, 1, 2, 3, 2 - just really didn't feel like I have it here. Doing more underhand just to get reps up. 
Dips: 5, 5, 5, 5, 5 - glad that I finally got 5x5 done

Lat Pull Downs: 5@145, 3@160, 4@160 - since this is a finisher and assistance work, I am taking the Starting Strength approach and working to get 3 sets of 5 clean full ROM reps in before advancing in weight. 

Farmer's Walk - 4 rests. I a making the excuse that if there were not people in the way that I could have done it with only 3 rests. Shooting for only 3 rests next time.
