notes: So today Ben told me to come to his gym and work out with him since I am home. This might be my future gym for the summer because I thought it was so cool and they have everything I would need and more to power lift or oly lift whatever I chose to do and also has stuff for conditioning work outs too. So I decided to go and follow what he had planned for his workout and I also made him do some conditioning with me. THe bench was really good and I have not maxed out since sophomore year so we tested that and I probably had at least 10 more lbs in me. This was the first time that I box squated.It was and interesting experience I will probably be sore from it tomorrow because it definitely worked different muscles. The wod we chose to do was with a log bar because we both really wanted to use it and it was a really good one. Then the curls came.... I got caught up in the strongman/powerlifting gym that I said fuck it and just did them. First time since p90x that I have curled and it probably wont be the last. A lot of power lifters use it as an assistance exercise and I will most likely include them if I take that route this summer. All and all great workout.
